Notes
Honey will balance out the taste and heat of the hot sauce.
White pepper is recommended if you do not want black specks in the sauce.
Whisk the butter in 2 to 3 pieces at a time and allow it to fully incorporate before adding the next piece. This will help the butter emulsify more thoroughly.
Adding additional bits of butter will bring down the spice level.
Taste the sauce before adding salt and cayenne pepper and adjust it to your taste preference.
Keep any unused portion in a lidded container and store in the refrigerator.
The butter will cause the sauce to solidify when cold. To return to a smooth, silky sauce, set the container in a dish of warm water for a few minutes then whisk well.
