Man that sounds good. I am going to try it. I just ordered some Bonnet, bhut and Hawaiian Big Island seed to grow this Summer. I printed it and can’t wait. But you do not cook it. I might try to make some Nevis Hot Sauce too..

You can certainly cook this sauce. Boiling it in the vinegar will, over time, burn off some of the capsaicin/oleoresin capsicum, and, if you monitor the taste while cooking (with, of course, a bottle of beer to hand ... ;^)    ), you can end up with a remarkably tasty, but not too hot, sauce.

The reason I say "you can end up with" is that there is no "right" amount of time to boil the sauce; it goes by guess and by G-d. I did this by accident on Memorial Day 1991, and the sauce was fantastic...and I've never had the boiled sauce be that good again. So, get out your lucky rabbit's foot.

Happy saucing!
