Adjust the number of chile peppers to control the heat level. For a milder sauce, use fewer peppers or remove the seeds and membranes before processing. Feel free to experiment with different types of fresh herbs. Cilantro, mint, or oregano can add unique flavor profiles to the sauce. The hot sauce will continue to develop its flavor over time, so allow it to sit in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before using. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
