The Best Home made Wild Garlic Chilli Sauce recipe

Wild garlic season means lots of wild garlic recipes in one go. The season is short, so if you want to enjoy the flavour way past the growing season, you need to make this sauce. This wild garlic chilli sauce recipe is one of those minimum effort / maximum taste recipes, so there is little not to like here. This recipe is a take on my mother's garlic sauce recipe. It would be best if you had wild garlic, green chillies, apple cider vinegar, and a blender.

This sauce is a versatile sauce that can be spread on toast or added to pasta, put in your stew.

The wild garlic growing season will end soon (mid-May time), so be sure to get out there and gather as quickly as possible. To learn more about wild garlic, visit my noodle soup with a foraged wild greens recipe.

Ingredients

Wild garlic chilli sauce ingredients in small dishes on a wooden tree trunk slice platter
  • Wild Garlic
  • Serrano Green chilli
  • Salt
  • Apple cider vinegar (I make my own!)

See the recipe card for quantities.

Instructions

Before you make this wild garlic chilli sauce, sterilise the jar you will store it in. I use old jam jars. Preheat your oven to 100ºC. Wash the jars in hot soapy water and then place them in the oven for at least thirty minutes. This processs will help stop the sauce from going mouldy too quickly.

Prepare your ingredients. Wash and pat dry the wild garlic. Then roughly chop it.

Also, roughly chop the green chilli, seeds included.

Then put the chopped wild garlic and green chillies into a blender and the salt and apple cider vinegar.

Then blend.

It's as simple as that! Transfer the sauce into the sterilised jars to store.

How To Video

Here is a video guide to making wild garlic chilli sauce.

Substitutions

Instead of apple cider vinegar, you can use white wine vinegar or white vinegar.

If you like your sauce hot, you can use half the amount of finger green chillies and half serrano chillies.

Equipment

Having a good blender is essential to making this sauce.

Storage

If the bottles are correctly sterilised, you can store this sauce for a year. Just make sure you use a clean dry spoon every time you use some of the sauce.

Top tip

Don't ignore the sterilisation process of your jars. If you place the sauce into unsterilised jars, there is a real danger of quickly forming mould.

Food Safety

In a professional kitchen, food hygiene and safety are top priorities, and from the beginning of my training, I practised good habits and routines. Here are some fundamental practices to adopt in the kitchen at home.

  • Wash your hands regularly while preparing, handling and cooking food.
  • Wipe down countertops and high-contact points regularly.
  • If you cook meat and fish, do not use the same utensils on cooked food that previously touched raw meat. Use separate chopping boards for meat and fish. Wash your chopping boards immediately after use.
  • Thoroughly cook food to a minimum temperature of 165 °F (74 °C).
  • Don't leave food at room temperature for extended periods (more than 2 hours).
  • Store food correctly.
