Apple Basil ssSerrano Hot Sauce
"You only have to look at the Medusa straight on to see her. And she's not deadly. She's beautiful and she's laughing." ~ Helene Cixous
A less daunting sauce for the novice heat seeker, ssSerrano is mild in heat but intense in flavour with just enough bite to leave a mark. A foundation of roasted apples and serrano peppers in apple cider vinegar are given a touch of sweetness from local honey and brightened in both flavour and color with heaping doses of fresh basil, lime and turmeric. If there is an improper meal to pair ssSerrano with, we haven't found it yet.
This elegant brew is fast becoming a wildly popular signature blend due to its all-encompassing versatility in most culinary scenarios. We like it on everything, but especially eggs, tacos and pizza.
Heat Level: II (pretty mild)
Ingredients: Apple cider vinegar, apples, serrano peppers, onion, lime juice, white wine vinegar, fresh basil, garlic, celery, honey, vinegar, spices.

Canto XXVI was founded in 2019 by artist and pepper enthusiast Cate Francis in a humble effort to supply her inner circle with fresh, flavorful sauces that she had yet to see on store shelves. But in short order rumors of her sauce sorcery escaped the laboratory resulting in a sudden and ever growing demand. Thus CANTO hot sauce was born.
