The authentic pimenta moida also has minced garlic added. I am from the Acores and we do not cook the pimenta but we add lots of salt and let it sit for a few days with only the salt and garlic. We then jar it.

I think this will work well with canning! Put in the jar and process as you would normally any other item for canning! :-)

Is this also called Piri Piri or is that different?

It's different Barbara, this one is red pepper sauce, or what Portuguese people call "pimenta moida".

I would go with red wine vinegar Bobby, white wine vinegar is a bit lighter. I will update the recipe.
