in the DIY condiment line.
this is my small chilli crop, ground and mixed with salt. The idea is that one puts it aside for a few months to ferment, then mixed with vinegar, wait some more, drain and one ends up with something like tabasco sauce. I'm not sure if the recipe will work scaled down this far. The proportions of salt are listed per pound of chillies. I had only a fraction of a pound. See, I should have posted this yesterday, i can't remember the actual weight now. Whatever, it worked out to need only one teaspoon of salt. Which seemed to me too mingey so I used two. Fingers crossed. I don't use a lot of chilli, but the most common form I do use is Tabasco.
