Hot As Hell Pepper Dip

Created by Steve,

Description

This Hot As Hell Pepper Dip is great served with chips, pitas, bread or served on the side of grilled meats.  I love this stuff but have learned to tone it down for the family style cookouts but poker night gets it full hot on!

Ingredients

At a glance
Makes
4 Cups

3-4 green bell peppers seeded and chopped (don't use red or yellow peppers for this)
1/4 lbs - 1/2 lbs jalapenos sliced and keep the seeds
1 16oz can tomato puree
1/4 cup of white or red wine vinegar
pinch of sugar if tomato puree isn't sweet

Optional
Fresh basil or parsley added towards the end of cooking

Methods/steps

Saute the peppers in a pan over medium heat until softened (about 15 minutes).  Season with salt if desired and then add the tomato puree, vinegar and a pinch of sugar if needed (I've never added any but I use good tomato puree)  Simmer for 30 to 45 or until the sauce has thicken.

Serve this as you would salsa with corn chips, pita chips or bread.

Additional Tips

I really like about a 4:1 ratio by weight of a green peppers to jalapenos but that's too hot for most so I try for 6:1 for the other guys and 10:1 for family nights.
