It’s hot sauce season again! Time to turn the amazing amount of tomatoes and carrots we get from the CSA into delicious hot sauce!

We’re still working through last year’s supply, and it’s already time to start making new batches again!

Tomatoes, habaneros, carrots, onion, garlic, vinegar and xanthan gum all combine into a delicious hot sauce with a slow heat that grows on you.

Swipe for progress pics and the recipe!

BREAKING: You Can Make Wine in Your Instant Pot (munchies.vice.com)

"The recipe, too, calls for an enormous supply of patience: The process takes 48 hours, followed by bottling and storing the solution in a dark, cool place for at least eight days."

Let's use more zucchini! These zucchini bread muffins are also vegan although you'd never know! The banana and a touch of xanthan gum takes the place of eggs, and add a hint of sweetness as well! Full recipe is in the link in my profile! #zucchini #summer #recipe #cooking #toomuchzucchini

What do you do with way too much zucchini? Make zucchini chips! Thinly slice zucchini and top with oil, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Bake at 250 degrees for about an hour until they get crispy! #zucchini #cooking #easyrecipes

Attempting an Instant Pot hot sauce recipe tonight!

• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 2 carrots
• 1 small onion
• 1.5 cups habaneros
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 cup rice vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup Mustard
• 1/2 tsp xanthan gum

Chop the carrots, onion, garlic and habaneros. They don't have to be super fine. Sauté the onions in the instant pot until translucent. Add everything and set to high pressure for 4 minutes. Let the pressure come down naturally, or you'll get a room full of capsaicin and you will regret it. Blend with an immersion blender.

Notes on the outcome of this recipe will follow!

Attempted to make tater tots tonight.

Started in the pressure cooker and the potatoes were really small so they got way too soft. kept going anyway.

Went through two frying pans to fry all these. the first one is now covered in black charcoal.

Turns out those cheap bags of frozen tater tots are totally worth it.

Day 1 with the new Instant Pot and I'm already super impressed. Turns out steaming potatoes vs boiling them keeps all the starch and makes super creamy mashed potatoes!

Made a batch of "Sorta Secret Aardvark Sauce" from http://forums.egullet.org/topic/128657-sorta-secret-aardvark-sauce-habenero-hot-sauce/ last week, it came out pretty good! Not quite the same as Secret Aardvark sauce but still tasty. I ended up using only half the amount of rice vinegar, and it definitely did not come out too thick.

Next time, I want to try it without the curry powder since I think that's what's contributing most to the difference in taste. I also want to add a little citric acid and xanthan gum.

The Oregon pizza had vegan sausage mountains covered in pesto and Serrano peppers, Eastern Oregon was a cashew cream topped with hazelnuts and artichoke hearts, and the rivers and Crater Lake were blue-colored cashew cream! #pizza #cooking #vegan #oregon
