Mexican 'nuevo Laredo' Hot Sauce

Submitted by Merle 1

"My father-in-law had a Cantina called Gomez in downtown Nuevo Laredo for 40 years. This is one of the recipes exactly. It's very hot to some so when you use it adjust the amount you put on your food. The bars like it hot because then you will drink more."
