You can use just about any pepper in a sauce, but will it taste good? Not sure since I never had that type of pepper. I grew some kung pao which sound similar small bush very prolific 100's of little peppers. I made into a sauce but did not care for them too many seeds and hassle of needing too many to make a sauce and the flavor was not the best for me. I just stick with the Bhut and Red Hab for sauce so far.
