Pique Puerto Rican Style Hot Sauce Recipes

PIQUE (PUERTO RICAN STYLE HOT SAUCE)

Pique (Puerto Rican Style Hot Sauce) image

I'm told every household in Puerto Rico has a bottle of pique on the table. And every family has their own version. You can use any hot peppers you like, according to your heat tolerance. All measurements are adjustable to your taste. You will need 1 clean, empty glass bottle of about 12-ounce capacity with a tight fitting lid(In Puerto Rico they traditionally use rum bottles). If there is a removable plastic shaker top, that is even better! Remove the shaker top prior to filling and set aside. An empty rice wine vinegar bottle works very well.

Ingredients

1 cup cider vinegar (I like Braggâ s Raw Apple Cider Vinegar-you can try other vinegars too)
12 long hot peppers (You can use any combination of jalapeno, arbol, scotch bonnet, habanero, cayenne, etcâ )
4 -6 garlic cloves, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
12 black peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (or other non-iodized)
1/2 a bay leaf
3 stems fresh cilantro (or fresh oregano)
1 -2 squeezes lime juice
toasted cumin seed

Steps:

Drop the garlic cloves, peppercorns, salt and bay leaf (and any of your optional additions) down into the bottle.
Remove the stems from the hot peppers. Leave the seeds and membranes intact if you want your Pique spicy! If necessary, slice the peppers lengthwise until they are a size that fits easily into the mouth of the bottle. Insert peppers (or peppers strips) into the bottle.
Use a funnel to pour vinegar into the bottle to cover the peppers and spices. If your bottle has a shaker top, snap it back into place, add the lid and set out on the counter for two days. After two days, store your Pique in the refrigerator.
You can top off with vinegar when it starts getting low with more vinegar. When the peppers start losing their punch, use a chopstick to remove the peppers and start over!

PIQUE (PUERTO RICAN HOT SAUCE)

Pique (Puerto Rican Hot Sauce) image

This recipe is for hot sauce! Hot but flavorful. The consistency isn't a thin liquid like Tabasco®. It's a little on the thick side so it doesn't disappear when you put it on your food. Great with everything on your plate...that is, if you love it hot and spicy! This keeps in the refrigerator for several weeks.
