  1. I love the video, but damn.. The glove part just made me not take you too serious. 10 Minutes to put on gloves means you're doing something wrong there. I put on gloves in seconds without problems, and I have big hands too, sweaty or not. Also sharpen your knife please.

  2. I don't like this. Bomba Calabrese isn't a thing and the guy talking doesn't sound like chef John but a younger guy talking in chef John -style

  3. i wonder if it'd be possible to swap out most of the spicy peppers for red bell peppers to lower the heat. thanks for the recipe ideas chef john!

  4. I made this with different hot peppers (what my grocery had), and it turned out super spicy hot. It was also delicious, but, with the heat, as I filled a three cup Mason jar, I thought, boy this is gonna last for a year.

    It's three weeks later I'm scraping the jar clean with a spatula. Wow, was this stuff good! And after two weeks of pickling in the vinegar, the flavors married and exploded. Next batch is going to get at least a two week aging in the 'fridge before the first bite.

    Thanks!

  5. Thanks for this recipe. I’ve been looking for one that doesn’t burn my lips but tastes wonderful.💖

  6. I made this with the last of my peppers and eggplants from my garden! It came out terrific! I’ll be growing more eggplants next year just for this recipe!

  7. This is great. I would drink the trader joes Bomba sauce. Made this today and its 10 times better. Thank you for making this.

  8. Reminds me of Balkanese Ajvar. A spicy relish of tomatoes, peppers and aubergines made to preserve the harvest.

  9. Is this better than the hard to find/hard to make cherry pepper relish found at Jersey Mikes? Centos version looks like it lacks olive oil vs Jersey mike's doesn't and is made straight with olive oil as a base.

  10. Thank you Chef John for this fabulous recipe.. had an abundance of hot Portuguese peppers from the backyard and made it yesterday… awesome! Crazy the markup on store bought bomba…
    Guess I’ll waterbath the jars to preserve them for storage .
    Made quite a bit… thank you again… cheers!
