Eaten Alive Fermented Hot Sauce – Pineapple Bomb

Pineapple and habanero are a dangerous combination. One encourages you to keep eating. The other makes sure you remember what you’ve done. Pineapple Bomb leans into the tropical sweetness, but the fermented habanero stops it becoming dessert in a bottle. Lime and cider vinegar sharpen everything up, while apple and onion add a little more depth than you might expect. It has enough heat to make itself known, but the fruit keeps calling you back for another taste. That’s the real trap. I would reach for this when grilled chicken needs rescuing, but fish and roasted vegetables are equally fair game. Mix it into a dressing, use it as a glaze or put it on pizza and accept that pineapple has finally won another argument.
