## What it is
An open-source recipe repository for 'El Fuego Viviente', a fermented chili hot sauce inspired by Marie Sharp's Hot Habanero sauce. It contains no code, only a detailed recipe with ingredients, fermentation steps, bottling instructions, and translations into several languages.

## Use cases
- make a fermented habanero hot sauce at home
- find a hot sauce recipe using carrots instead of sugar
- learn how to ferment chilis in brine safely
- adapt and improve an open hot sauce recipe
- check fermentation pH for food safety
- share a chili sauce recipe in multiple languages

## When to choose
- you want a proven, community-vetted fermented hot sauce recipe
- you prefer natural sweetness from vegetables over added sugar
- you want a freely shareable and improvable recipe

## When to avoid
- you are looking for software or code
- you need a quick sauce without a multi-week fermentation
- you require certified food-safety guidance rather than a hobbyist recipe

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: stable
- function: documentation
- domain: food, education
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: recipe, hot-sauce, fermentation, chili, open-source-recipe, cooking
