Try using some raisons in the mix, this acts as a colling agent, but not too many as it will also help you visit the loo several times a day. Will be posting Big Dadda Chill Sauce recipe soon. It's mash up.

followed this, and I am in pain, those scotch bonnets are lethal! I am in Haiti and tried the Haitian version, I have a Sierra Leone version also, very much the same. So I gave your a go, it hits the spot. I made a second batch, gave her a twist, I added i whole lemon rind, substituted the sugar for honey, added fresh ginger, one cooked and blended added lemon (Or lime) juice and honey to get that balance, this is mind blowing... One point to note the Chilli in Haiti is 'FIRE'.

If you would like an Indian twist to it, add ground cumin and and a little ground fenugreek.

It compares to a brand called Mr Naga chilli pickle

I made it with wine vinegar and the result is very good. However, the next time i won't remove the seeds because the sauce is too cool for me like that :p Thanks for this good recipe.

just a note: I'd suggest wearing some surgical type gloves when handling those pesky peppers. And for god sakes....... DON'T TOUCH YOUR FACE! a friend rubbed a slice of habanero on the rim of my coffee cup.....my lips were burning!!!!

An old boss of mine rubbed his balls after chopping some habaneros. He laughed at everyone else who was shocked and then shrieked like a little girl and ran upstairs to the cafe's office. Seriously.

This was at a cafe in my college town in Ohio. The owner was about 22. He never went to college and instead spent all his time hanging out with college students, but that still doesn't explain him. For Halloween he once made an "inside out" suit. That was regular clothes with all sorts of meat and intestines hanging off of him. He won a prize, but nobody went near him. And as for what happened to him after rubbing himself, I remember that he tried soaking in milk, but I forget if that helped or not.

Or, take a hot chili pepper, and a lemon thing and use the juice! Hot!

This sounds awesome! I hope you're taking good notes each time you make hot sauce to perfect the recipe. Give us an update. I'll have to try this with the end-of-season peppers.

this would be a good idea for me because this year we grew hot peppers and ended up with 100+ peppers and we can't find anymore good uses for them
