homemade fermented scotch bonnet hot sauce

A vibrant, spicy, and tangy fermented hot sauce made with a robust mix of red bell peppers, fiery scotch bonnets, finger chillies, onions, and garlic. The two-week fermentation process in a saltwater brine develops deep, complex flavors that are finished with a splash of white wine vinegar. The result is a professional-grade sauce with customizable heat.
