Whisk the Ingredients. Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl. Whisk them together until the chili sauce is nicely uniform and all of the ingredients are mixed through. You can also use a blender or food processor, but a whisk is usually sufficient.
What is capsaicin exactly?
13. TOMATO JUICE PLUS HOT SAUCE
Crushed red pepper is a staple in many kitchens, known for its fiery and bold flavor. This spice is made from dried and crushed red chili peppers, including the seeds and flakes. As a result, it packs a punch of heat along with a distinct pepperiness that can awaken your taste buds.


Pimiento is a type of sweet pepper that is often used to make paprika. It has a mild and sweet flavor and is commonly used in Spanish cuisine, where it is used to flavor dishes such as pimento cheese, stuffed peppers, and tapas.
The Scoville Scale was developed in 1912 by Wilbur Scoville, a pharmacist from the United States. To determine the SHU, an exact weight of hot pepper is dissolved in alcohol to extract the capsaicinoids components. These components are then diluted in a solution of sugar water and decreasing concentrations are given to a panel of trained tasters until a majority can no longer detect them in a diluted form. The heat level is then rated based on this dilution in multiples of 100 SHU. This system was initially purely organoleptic but nowadays is measured using HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography) to prevent any deviation from sensory fatigue or the chosen panel´s resistance.
No matter what kind of paprika you choose, make sure you cook it with some kind of liquid. All paprika contains a relatively high amount of natural sugar, so exposure to direct heat on the bottom of the pan can burn it very easily. Because of their very different flavor profiles, we do not recommend substituting smoked paprika for regular paprika, or vice-versa.
