Can I use Chili Pepper in place of cayenne pepper?
Saturday, December 26th, 2009I know a lot of people have already asked if there’s a difference between cayenne pepper and chili pepper but I want to know if I can substitute one for the other? I don’t have cayenne pepper and a barbeque sauce recipe calls for it, can I just use chili pepper instead or will it make the barbeque sauce taste weird or different?
Is hot sauce bad for a diet?
Saturday, December 5th, 2009I was wondering if Hot Sauce is bad for diets. Theres this one specific Asian hot sauce that I absolutely love, its the Rooster Sauce logo one that almost every Asian restaurant has on their table. Is it bad for a diet? I use tons of it.
Can someone fix this chili sauce recipe so I could figure out how to make it? It was my mom’s?
Saturday, November 14th, 2009this was my mom’s recipe (she is dead now)and it was very good and very mild sauce, good on hot dogs, kind of sweet.
Chili Sauce
1 Bushel of tomatoes
3 mangoes
2 banana peppers
½ hot pepper
1 ½ stalks of celery
5 lbs onions
salt, cinnamon and ground cloves
2 tsp. mixed pickling spices (in a strainer bag or cheesecloth)
2 cloves garlic
½ box brown sugar
¾ qt. white vinegar
that is all I could find of the recipe…
not exactly sure of the amounts of the salt, cinnamon and ground cloves…
I have a feeling the celery is 1 1/2 bunches not sticks.
we had a garden so not sure how many tomatoes in a bushel?
3/4 qt is how much cups?
She cooked it in a very large pot (20qt?).
I think she blanched the tomatoes and then put them thru a twirly sieve thingy that squished them and left the skins behind. what is the name of the twirly sieve thingy?
thanks lots of l…that is some help..yes a food mill..that was it.
mee maw, thanks I did wonder about the mangoes, because we never bought any wierd stuff, but we did grow sweet peppers and she maybe did call them mangoes…
sorry, that was mrs. momma who came up with the mangoes are really bell peppers idea..thanks..I had forgotten her calling them that and the mangoes had me scratching my head..
mee maw, thanks for the smaller recipe to try..will substitute bell pepper for the mangoes..I believe that my mom did call bell peppers mangoes, now that mrs momma reminded me of that…..
note- I could be wrong on the food mill..could have been used for tomato sauce….
yep, we are from ohio…good guess lots_of_ l..
