A Virtual Hot Sauce Making Workshop

Turn up the heat with this interactive virtual hot sauce making workshop, a lively online cooking class where guests learn how to create bold, flavorful hot sauces from scratch. Hosted by an expert instructor, this fun and educational experience guides participants step-by-step through the art of crafting perfectly balanced sauces while learning about the ingredients, techniques, and cultural traditions behind these famously fiery condiments.

During the workshop, participants will make two unique hot sauces, each with its own flavor profile and heat level. Your host will demonstrate the techniques before guiding guests through the process of blending, seasoning, and balancing their sauces while sharing helpful pro tips and fun facts along the way.

Participants will also learn about chili heat levels using the Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) scale and explore how different ingredients influence the final flavor and spice level of each sauce.

The two hot sauces featured in the workshop include:

Smoked Jalapeño
Heat Level: 5,000 – 8,000 SHU

Tropical Ginger Costeño
Heat Level: 3,000 – 5,000 SHU

All ingredients are delivered ahead of the event so participants can easily follow along from their own kitchen.
