Hey All..

Risa.. I was looking at this website as I am about to make some hot sauce
this weekend..

http://www.pepperfool.com/recipes/hotsauce_idx.html

and I noticed that you made mention of "*** I used Apple Cider Vinegar" in
some places.  All the times I have made hot sauces.. I was using just
regular
White distilled vinegar.  So my question:

Is there a big difference in taste between the two vinegars in hot sauces?

I had often thought of using Apple Cider Vinegar in the past..  but decided
since Im still a newbie homemade hot sauce maker...  i would stick pretty
close
to the recipe...

Im not all that "proud" of my previous hot sauces... they turn out alot
thicker
than I would like.. but the good thing is now I have a food processor to use
instead of just a blender.  :oD    So Im thinking that may make some
difference
as well.  I think it could be too the fluid to solid ratio too..  so maybe I
need to work on that..   practice makes perfect I guess.  Oh.. and I also
didnt
strain it either.. so that may be why its so thick too..  Im an idiot.. what
can I say.  :o)

Also.. what about the addition of other spices.. or herbs..  Like garlic..
or
cilantro...  bad idea? not food safe (fear of not going bad, etc.. even
though
supposedly vinegar is a natural preservative)?

Thanks!

Woody
