Sauces are very important ingredients on the table and in the kitchen. People rely on their sauces to make their food more flavorful. It is great for cooking all sorts of food and as an accompaniment for sandwiches, pizza, burger, and fried dishes. These days, you can already find all sorts of sauces. For those that love anything spicy, the bhut jolokia sauce is one that is highly recommended.

Bhut jolokia or ghost chili pepper is the hottest among all the peppers that exist. This pepper is very hot that getting in contact with its fumes can lead to burns. Its extreme heat makes it a favorite among food enthusiasts and cooks that are always looking for that spicy kick. Many manufacturers have used this chili to create sauces that their customers are going to like.

A few of these companies are not limited to manufacturing products that are sold to the public. Some of them can also produce private label sauces. It is a special service where in one may request for their own sauces to be placed inside a bottle that they designed themselves. These are usually used as gifts and giveaways.

It is also possible for people to just create their own sauce especially if they love cooking very much. This is commonly done in a lot of restaurants and in so many homes. Many dining establishments are known for having signature sauces. Making sauces from scratch allows you to use any ingredient you like.

To make your very own bhut jolokia sauce, you would of course need to have the ghost chili peppers. It is up to you if you will add other ingredients like herbs and spices to make the condiment more special. Common ingredients used by other people are cloves, cumin, garlic, sugar, vinegar, and other kinds of peppers.

Before making this, see to it that you have taken the necessary safety precautions. This is needed since these peppers can cause a lot of pain with improper handling. Make sure that you are wearing gloves, mask, goggles, and a shirt with long sleeves. Prepare cold water and a first aid kit in advance just in case anything will happen.

Once the sauce is done, place it inside a clear container or glass. The container should be clear so that everyone will see what is inside. When used at home, place it somewhere kids and pets will not be able to reach. It would also be better if you can label the container to serve as a warning for everyone.

To deal with the sauce's hotness, it is very handy to have other ingredients or food that could help lessen the heat. One ingredient many people use as antidote is milk. It can flush the capsaicin from the mouth. Some people also make use of honey and food rich in starch such as rice.

Bhut jolokia sauce makes almost any food more delicious. This goes well with French fries, chicken wings, onion rings, hotdog, and other favorite snacks. It brings the heat to soups and chowders.
