Fermented chipotle taco sauce

[chippewa]

Made( 10 )1/2 pint jars of fermented chipotle taco sauce. The main part of it has been fermenting for 3 months.
Fermenting ingredients:
1/4# red Serrano peppers
1 1/4# mixture of red and green Jalapeños
6 cloves garlic
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp salt

After fermenting ingredients:
3/4 bunch of cilantro (stems and all)
1/2 C distilled white vinegar
28oz can crushed tomatoes
1/2 of a 7oz can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

• stem , semi de-seed and rough chop peppers
  And put in a food processor and pulse to get the size of high temp cheese and add all of the fermenting ingredients and pulse to mix together.
  -Put this mixture into a sterilized quart mason jar and cover with a piece of Saran Wrap and a rubber band (not too tight) to let it exhaust gasses.
• put in a dark space and let it sit a month or longer stirring occasionally ( once a week?).

After fermenting I put all of the remaining ingediends in my vitamix blender and purée until smooth and all seeds are gone. Heat mixture to a boil and simmer around 10 minutes.

• then water bath can 1/2 pints or pints for 10 minutes

Denny,
I would give it a 14 out of 20 on the heat scale. We like hot but not burn your mouth hot. You can adjust the heat by the amount of veins you leave in the peppers and or the amount of peppers even add more of the other ingredients (which I had to on this batch because it was too hot for the Wife at first).

tarp it tastes great! I have been making it for about 5 years now.
