Transfer puree into a large glass jar or pitcher. Cover container with plastic wrap and place into a cool dark location for 3 to 5 days, stirring and scraping down the sides once a day. The mixture will begin to bubble and ferment. Rewrap after every stirring and return to a cool, dark place until the mixture is bubbly.

Pour fermented mixture back into the blender; add vinegar and blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a saucepan, pushing as much of the pulp as possible through the strainer into the sauce. Discard remaining pulp, seeds, and skin left in the strainer.

Chef's Note
I used about 75% red jalapeños and about 25% red serrano chiles, so this version is probably a bit spicier than the rooster sauce you're more familiar with.
