• 1ish tsp each Chili powder, Cayenne pepper powder
• 1/2ish tsp Garlic
• 1/2ish tsp lemon juice
• 1/4ish tsp each Salt & Pepper
• 1/4-1ish tsp each of whatever other spices strike your fancy
• 1-1.5ish cups white vinegar

What? You were expecting accuracy?

*sigh*
Any any rate,

Steps:

1. WEAR PROTECTIVE-WEAR ON YOUR HANDS, AND KEEP YOUR HANDS OUT OF YOUR EYES
2. Roast the peppers on an open flame – use tongs please
3. Slip into a pair of latex gloves (or suitable alternative)
4. Remove skins and stems from peppers
5. Did I mention the not touching your eyes part?
6. Mix peppers and spices in blender
7. Add enough vinegar to cover mixture and puree until smoothish
8. Add more vinegar if necessary to attain desired consistancy
9. Transfer mixture to sauce pan on stove and heat until slow rolling boil
10. Continue heating on stove until eyes water and/or any pets exit the building
11. Strain mixture through metal strainer or cheesecloth
12. bottle and refrigerate
