Freezing Piri Piri Sauce

Hi, getting Fresno chilis is near impossible where I live, but this year at the farmer's market, I was able to score a bunch. I was wondering if I could make a large batch of Piri Piri sauce and freeze it in portions to have throughout the year, or at least the winter months? If so, would I need to do anything special with it, either when freezing or defrosting? Thanks.

    Hi Keith - This should work fine. Just make sure to leave a little headroom in the airtight container - to account for expansion when freezing - and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the sauce before covering. It should last for 2-3 months. Best, The Milk Street Team
