Fragrant, fiery chile-pepper water is an essential condiment on the Hawaiian table, where a few drops of the stuff transforms even stodgy cutlets and lumpen beef stews into something almost magical. Ingredients:
1/2 garlic clove, minced |
2 fresh red hawaiian or serrano chiles, halved and seeded |
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger |
1/3 cup plus 1 1/4 cups water |
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar |
Directions:
1. Blend garlic, chiles, ginger, a pinch of salt, 1/3 cup water, and vinegar in blender until smooth. Bring remaining 1 1/4 cups water to a boil. Then add chile mixture and bring to a boil. Cool completely. (Keeps, covered and chilled, 1 month.) |
