RON'S AFTERBURNER MEXICAN HOT SAUCE
Light up your life with the best hot sauce you'll ever taste. This sauce is simmilar to Pico Pica. I like it because it can be used on any food requiring a little nip to the tongue. I love Pico Pica but it's hard to find in the Midwest. Soooooo, after a lot of research, I decided to make my own tasty hot sauce. Try it. If you are a hot sauce lover, you'll like this one. There are two versions. The original, made with dried red chili peppers and the one for the brave at heart, made with Habanero's.

Steps:
- Make sure the red chili peppers are the hot dried type with stems removed. Bring all ingredients, except tomato sauce, to a boil, turn down heat and simmer about ten minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Place in blender and add tomato sauce. Add carrot at this point if using Habanero recipe. Blend until smooth. Add a little more water if to thick.
- If you use the Habanero's recipe make sure you include the seeds. If you want to tone it down a little then remove the seeds.
MEXICAN STYLE HOT SAUCE
I moved to Texas from Michigan some years ago, and really loved the hot sauce that comes with the tortilla chips at any Mexican restaurant down here. This is a take from a recipe a work-friend gave me. It's great, this is also what I use on my Cilantro Salmon. Recipe can also be easily doubled if you're having guests. Also, recipe is really to taste. Once you get to the last steps, use as much or as little cilantro, salt and lime juice as you like. If you prefer less garlic, use less.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place garlic cloves and peppers on baking sheet, place in oven and roast until garlic and peppers are brown and skin is blistering. Cut tops of peppers off.
- Meanwhile, put in a blender or food processor the tomatoes (I like Muir Glen brand) and onions. Blend, until onion is well minced, but do not make it too smooth yet. When peppers and garlic are done, put in blender with tomato mixture. (If you want a milder sauce, wait until peppers are cool enough to handle and de-seed before putting in blender) Blend until smooth. Add cilantro, using more or less, to taste. Chop in blender. Squeeze juice of 1 whole lime, add salt to taste, and mix in blender. Taste sauce, if needs more salt or lime, just add more!
