I would suggest when heating chilis in the pan to try to do that outside. We had too much chili in the air and were coughing like crazy, but we did use arbol chilis, which probably made fumes in the air

This has no heat to speak of so I don't know why it's called a "hot" sauce. Try using a few arbols if you can find them or even roast a serrano, removing the seeds if you don't want too much heat. I also eliminated the brown sugar altogether (it detracted from the tang of the vinegar that is characteristic of a good hot sauce) and reduced the cumin to 3/4 t.

Great flavor! But no heat. Definitely needs to be thicker. Will try to adjust

This is pretty good sauce. It was easy to make. I didn't have the guajillo chile so I subbed a chipotle. It gave it a nice smoky flavor. I just read that you suggested an arbol chile for heat. I have those. I will have to make again to try with the arbols. Interesting sauce. Would like it a little thicker though. Going to play with the recipe now that I've tried it the way you posted it. Thanks for a nice hot sauce recipe.

Great hot sauce. I didn't have quite enough cumin, so used only 3/4 tsp., but everything else was the same. I did add the optional lime. Great flavor.
