Every year I grow peppers. It seems that I also have an abundance of jalapeno peppers every year. I usually cut them up and freeze them. This year I bought some peppers from Alameda Greenhouse in Albuquerque that stated that these peppers were sriracha peppers. Great! I love sriracha. I’m not so great about cooking … Continue reading Homemade Sriracha
