What is Habanero Sauce Made From?

Habaneros are one of the world's hottest chili peppers. Seriously, you don't want to even get habanero on your skin because it will burn. When we made our Rebel Red sauce, we knew we wanted to use habaneros for the delightful spiciness, but we also knew we had to tone it down a little. Cue mango – it plays nicely with spicy peppers. And as usual, we kept our ingredients simple so you know exactly what's in it.

How Spicy is Habanero Sauce?

Spiciness is measured in Scoville units. Capsaicin is responsible for the heat you experience when you eat a chili pepper. Different types of peppers contain more or less capsaicin, which is why some peppers (like habanero) are spicy. The Scoville scale ranges from 0 to 16 million – which is the Scoville heat unit (SHU) for pure capsaicin. Bell peppers contain virtually no capsaicin, so they are at the bottom of the heat scale. Jalapenos are typically 2,500 to 8,000 SHU. Habaneros, on the other hand, comes in at 100,000 to 350,000 SHU. Our Rebel Red sauce isn't that hot, though. You can think of it more as the essence of habanero rather than sucking on a fresh pepper.

What Does Rebel Red Sauce Taste Like?

The first thing you notice about our Rebel Red sauce when you taste it is the surprising sweetness. It's got just a touch of tang from apple cider vinegar and just a touch of spice from the red chili peppers. Then, the habanero comes in. Almost like an afterthought, it's just a touch of extra hot heat that makes your mouth water. It's a perfect balance of flavors with just enough heat to bring out the delicious flavors of your favorite meal.
