]]> This everyday pepper sauce is quite hot if eaten alone, but is meant to be used as a side sauce or as an ingredient in your recipes.  I make it as a way to preserve my crop and to make it easy to experiment with.

Be sure to wear gloves for handling the hot peppers.  If you handle hot peppers often,  you will be okay with the heat on your hands but if you inadvertently touch other, more sensitive body parts, you may be in for an uncomfortable ride.  I have experienced habañero eyes more than once and it lasts for hours. You will not need to remove the skin or seeds from the tomatoes. It is much work and they will be strained out after cooking.

]]> These quick refrigerator pickles make good use of odds and ends from the garden or farmers market. They are also the perfect solution for what to do with end-of-summer green tomatoes that refuse to ripen in the cooling weather.

Rinse and dry the vegetables thoroughly before pickling them. The brine in this recipe will fill four to five 1-liter or 1-quart jars. Allow at least 48 hours before serving; they may be stored, refrigerated, for up to two months.
