Critical Success Points

  • Do not burn the garlic in Step 3—burnt garlic will make the sauce bitter.
  • Simmer gently (Step 5); too high heat can scorch the sauce.
  • Taste and season properly (Step 6); under- or over-salting can ruin the sauce.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful when blending hot sauce—use an immersion blender and keep the head submerged to avoid splatter.
  • Do not leave sauce simmering unattended.
  • Let sauce cool before transferring to storage containers to avoid burns.
