This wonderful chilli sherry recipe came from Ivan. This is an item always on hand to add to soups tableside in colder months.  A half jigger or more poured on a broth chicken soup is just what the doctor ordered.

Ingredients

  • 10-12 Serrano peppers sliced about ½ from tip to middle

Instructions

1

Open the Sherry and pour a tumbler glass full.  Stuff the chili’s in if they are too fat half or quarter them.

2

Carefully pour the sherry back in. 

3

Whatever does not fit due to the pepper displacement drink, immediately. 

4

Store the bottle in a cool, dark place for 6 months.

We always have a bottle or two of Chili Sherry ready. I think my current one is more than 2 years old and half full. Now that we live in the tropics we only need it 3 months of the year, in cooler climes, we would use about a bottle a year.

Serve Chili Sherry on the table with soups on cold days. Try it on our Broccoli and Stilton Soup Recipe, it really adds anew dimension.

Alternatives for Chili Sherry 

Recently because of a surplus of chili’s and a shortage of Sherry we used exactly the same process with White Port. Equally as nice and equally as flavoursome.
