[u]NOTE[/u]: This sauce is REALLY HOT !!! You have to measure the seasonings EXACTLY. Just a little too much can make it too hot to eat. Not sure why it’s so hot because only has 2 tsps red pepper flakes and 1/2 tsp chili (maybe cut back on these two). Guess it’s the combination of the spices. Good luck! By the way, you will probably drink a lot while eating this LOL Be careful it’s not wine. Some guests have actually got drunk while eating this because they drank too much. They said they couldn’t stop although it was sooo hot because it was so good.
You be the judge and let us know what you think. Oh…I wouldn’t serve it to children…too hot!
