I tried chili garlic with sugar in Cheong method. To finish it up blend it with vinegar, it taste like a more flavorful version of Thai sweet chili sauce! 😋
@@ckdrumgoole I just guesstimate everything 😅 Roughly the ratio of garlic, chili and sugar are 0.3:1:1 And later on blend them with tiny bit of salt and vinegar
This makes me think of some of the fruity super hot chilies out there, scotch bonnet and the like. Definitely would want to blend them in with something less spicy tho
I really like your experiments with fermentation, and as someone with IBS due to fermentable sugars causing havoc in my intestines, ive been wondering if these already fermented recipes would allow me to get foods like garlic Back in my diet… here in Brazil we dont really have the habit of fermenting, but i do love the flavours and would like to start trying these recipes at home
I made some for my son on July 4th with mostly Habaneros and added a couple jalapeños I had. I had to peel 5 heads of garlic, lol. It was a labor of love for him. Will have to wait to see how it turns out, he loves Chili garlic paste.
After it ferments to the taste you like, then you can mix it in to all of it, if you like. No question is a dumb one! Good luck! I just made one on 7/4 for my son as a gift, hope it's good!
Fermentation will bring out the subtle fruity flavors in garlic and break down a lot of the sharp garlicky ness, and it can mellow the heat into a very surprising flavor depending on the chilis you use.
@@allriasvylen8257 are all hot sauces all fermented? like i notice the red hot sauce will add vinegar to them. i prefer spicy without the tart. and what about that other hot sauce siracha is that fermented too?
@@merrimerrioAcidity generally is used to balance flavors but also to make food last longer. However, in Sriracha sauce etc. it’s also a fermented base, but could possibly be also explained by a combination of reasons.
@@hanselchen i loovee the chili flakes siracha the one with a round green lid and you can see the pieces of chili versus the squeeze bottle with everything whipped together to form a congealed paste. i need to learn to make that because there's a lot of preservatives that i would like to avoid
Can I use red/green peppers (bell peppers) on this? The chillies I got are too hot so I'd like to dilute them by using one part chillies, one part bell peppers, and two part garlic. Basically substitute half the chillies for bell peppers. Thanks.
We make this once a year in a big patch. It’s amazing and versatile, we like to heat up some olive oil and put a few spoons in and lightly sauce. Goes great on potatoes, fish, chicken, anything really, so good
This ratio gives the perfect conditions for the bacteria who will aid the fermentation process while prohibiting any mold and stuff. Look up 'lacto fermentation' and you'll find plenty of resources
@@bree4673 I think it would need an acid added to it in order to be safely canned, you wouldn't want to give a gift of a dangerous illness 😊 Vinegar added would provide the acidity needed to safely can it.
