Creole Hot Pepper Sauce

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   
5 quarts Vinegar
5 quarts Hot Red Peppers, washed
3 pounds Onion, peeled, quartered
3 whole Garlic cloves, peeled, chopped
1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 cup Salt
2 tablespoons Pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons Lemon Juice (optional)
 
   
Preparation:  
   

Combine 4 quarts vinegar, peppers, onions, and garlic in a large Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Cook over low heat until vegetables are tender, about 1 hour.

Drain vegetables, reserving liquid. Place vegetables in blender; blend until chopped. Press vegetables through a rice strainer and discard seeds.

Combine pureed vegetables, reserved vegetable liquid, and remaining ingredients in a large Dutch oven. Cook until thickened over medium heat. Let mixture simmer 30 minutes.

Quickly pour into sterilized jars, leaving 1/8-inch head space. Cover at once with metal lids and screw metal band tight. Process in boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
