Easy Jalapeño Hot Sauce | Family Cuisine

Learn how to make the best Jalapeño Hot Sauce! This recipe is super easy, requires only 5 ingredients and tastes so much better than store-bought hot sauce.

This jalapeño hot sauce is inspired by the one served at our favorite taqueria, Pancho’s. It’s not thin and watery like most bottled hot sauces. It has a thicker texture since it’s made up of pureed jalapeño peppers and does not get strained. I always have a batch of this hot sauce on hand to spice up all of my favorite foods!

Those last two barely even count. It’s a basic technique and guideline so you can play around with the ingredients and adjust them to suit your taste.

This recipe can also be made with other chili peppers instead of jalapeños, or can be made with a combination of peppers. You can use serrano chillies, habanero chillies, fresno chillies or any other unique variety.

Is Jalapeño hot sauce very spicy?

This jalapeño hot sauce can be made as spicy or as mild as you like. Because jalapeños vary widely in their spiciness, I recommend tasting a small piece first to determine how hot your batch is.

For a milder hot sauce, remove the seeds and ribs before blending. For a spicier hot sauce, leave all of the seeds and ribs in.
