We are about to break into full holiday party season, and that means it's time to cook! Grocery stores sell sweet and spicy sauces made by a long list of companies from around the world, so why make your own?
For one, shelf-stable sauces from grocery stores are often loaded with preservatives, and cost a fortune for a small bottle.
Save yourself the preservatives and some money by making this sauce yourself at home, and tailor the spiciness to your family’s preference by adjusting the amount of red pepper flakes used.
