HOT PEPPER MASH
Our pure pepper mash set the standard for quality.  Gourmet hot sauce requires that the peppers be mashed and fermented.  Most home hot sauce makers don't have the time to do this.  Our pepper mash is ready to use as is or with any recipe.  These are pure peppers fermented in salt, not a processed concentrate! No preservatives or additives. One tablespoon equals about one whole pepper.
