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.
