In which John and his mom make homemade hot sauce that costs $65 per bottle, takes around eight months to make, and has a fairly high chance of resulting in catastrophic failure.

I don't know what it was about what you have written, but I broke down and cried. I live in Israel and I hate this constant debate I have inside of me of my love to my home and my people that just experienced horrible loss and pain, and the absolute hate of the suffering we cause. I hope one day I'd be able to deal with that. Love reading your thoughts about it, it was very empathetic and I'm thankful for it ♥

"Gardening is free" my gran would say, having spent £300 on a greenhouse, £30 on the compost, about £10 on the seeds, and then she'd usually burn the food anyway.

@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 11 месяцев назад

She'd be a great accountant.

@LaughingOrange 11 месяцев назад

The £300 was a one time purchase, and can be reused many times. The compost and seeds could be a recurring cost, depending on how sustainable the gardening is.

@thatjillgirl 11 месяцев назад

The upfront cost can be a lot, depending on how hard you go on it. But if you do buy something structural, like a greenhouse, you can keep using it year after year. Compost can be made at home. Seeds can be harvested from your plants if you really want to go for it. It's one of those hobbies that can get cheaper over time.

@lpieters5 11 месяцев назад

@codyfrisch4378 hey, that sounds a lot like economies of scale. The more you produce, the less the cost. Wouldn't it be great if you could make it really big so you can afford someone else to do the work? Oh... That's what a farm is?

@It-b-Blair 11 месяцев назад

A) Being able to have land for a greenhouse is a privilege. B) The land gets taxed too C) You’re time isn’t free. Take your pay rate and multiply it by how many hours you spend taking care of your crops, plus all the annual fertilizer and utilities costs and then you have a realistic cost analysis.

I'm not super confident in my own understanding of the fermentation process, but off the top of my head I believe it's mostly CO2. Upon further research that seems to be mostly from yeast fermentation (if the Encyclopedia Britannica can be believed), so I'm definitely still not confident in my understanding of fermentation in this case, and open to being corrected.

The example they set and the ideals they implore are far and away the most impactful influence (outside of my own wonderful family) in my life.

@senormoll 11 месяцев назад

Couple tips: they make airlock lids for mason jars that reduces your risk of mold to close to 0. Also, you can reserve like 1/3 to 1/2 of the total salt you're using, and sprinkle it on top of the mash when you're done. The surface is where most bad bacteria live (and yeast, which looks kinda like mold and makes it taste terrible IMO, but isn't toxic). This is called a salt cap and it's pretty standard in mash fermentation.

@BemisShmemis 11 месяцев назад

You can actually overwinter your pepper plants if you really wanna go hard. Cutting back the plant both above and below ground and bringing them in for the winter in a pot is an excellent way to jumpstart pepper production in subsequent years, as the plant will already have an established root body and some sturdy branches to bud off of. Our Habanero is 3 years old now!

@jase_allen 11 месяцев назад

Since it's a homemade product and probably not pasteurized, it's going to have a shorter useable lifespan than commercial products. They have the process of making the sauce together. Many years down the line, John can make hot sauce with his own kids or grandkids, and remember those times with Mama Green while making new memories for the next generation. When you think about it, that's the true magic of having an "old family recipe."

To make things a teeny less time consuming in years to come, you can get fermentation specific lids that use an airlock to let the gasses out without having to burp regularly. Between doing that and swirling a bit occasionally to keep the fruit cap moist, it should drastically reduce mold worries.

@PaulTMaack0 11 месяцев назад

I haven't been able to grow peppers recently, but when I was going through some tough times a few years ago, this was my thing. A few tips: weigh the peppers and salt. Just get a scale that measures down to the tenth of a gram. Keep everything clean. Get an air lock lid, and an air lock. Burping the lids can get away from you if you're not able to easily acquire new habits. Vinegar is a strong flavor and carries a strong odor. Citric acid (available in the canning area of your local grocer) and water (I like 8 grams citric acid powder per liter of clean water) is a great alternative. If you make a brine ferment instead of mash, you can use the lactic acid already present. Don't stick your finger in something you're going to put on a shelf (or give to someone to put on a shelf) which will be consumed much later. It's probably fine, but still kinda gross. Don't think about the cost. It's high.

As an old hand with lactofermentation (the kind you're doing) you can reduce the "no whammy" issue by using an inoculation from another lactoferment. Just 10-20ml per jar of the water from a previous successful ferment will jumpstart it, and allow it to push out the oxygen (which the mold needs) much more quickly. A single-jar batch of lacto-pickled carrots or something made a week ahead of time would give you more than enough liquid! Also, I highly recommend mason jar "pickle pipes". Basically a little silicon widget that replaces the metal insert in the lid. Positive pressure auto-releases the gas without letting anything in. A balloon gently stretched over the mouth with a pinprick in it will also do the trick.

But it was fun and I learned a lot about taking care of plants. Next year I'm doing it again probably.

We plant hot peppers because 1 x a year, my son takes salsa to work. 1 time a year we make the hottest salsa known to man. Scotch bonnets thai chilis jalapanos and many more are chopped up with onions and tomatos for a burn feast. Each man from his work offers up a salsa. They each grab a chip and dip into the firey malange. Tasting each one. They do this on a friday, so they have a weekend to get past all side effects from eating fire. So that is why we grow peppers and buy disposable gloves.

Hank's next video definitely needs to be him explaining how fermentation works in excessive detail while he also gives us other fun science facts about the hot sauce making process

I hope the anxiety wave passes soon john. Your peppers are lovely, how delightful that there are so many to keep each other company in life and in sauce. DFTBA

When I ferment things, I like to do it in a swing-top jar (the kind with the little metal latch) closed up with a hair tie or a rubber band. It'll be tight enough to keep bugs out, but have enough give to let fermentation gas out on its own. Plus, with a glass lid, it's easy to see if mold is growing : )

Clarification: hot sauce is a shelf-stable product covered by Indiana cottage food laws. You can sell it if you want to. You wouldn't be able to make it profitable, but you could clean out some inventory and make enough for more bottles. :)

I love your pepper garden! Great job! I would never have the patience for gardening. (Maybe in 20 years.)

John, I would highly recommend building a relationship with your counties extension office, they can share a lot of great gardening/agricultural resources
