funny. I did the exact thing to a tub of chilli I made for or neighborhood summer party. in 2012, I made a pot with a few Habanero peppers and we had a few knuckleheads acted like it was mild. A half a bottle of this stuff mixed in this time sent them running for the ice cream.
Some years ago, I roomed with two brothers from Saipan. They had a hot sauce that an uncle sent to them; it was basically ground chiles and garlic. They would put a good-sized spoonful into a bowl of food. I tried it once, and the smallest amount I could put onto one tine of a fork burned my mouth out for about half an hour. I’m talking less than a pinhead. I don’t know what pepper it was, nor do I want to.
And I consider chiltepin to be about right, though habanero is a bit too spicy for me.
I’m from WV. Grew up meat and potatoes.
When SHTF and you are eating possum and such you are going to want this stuff.
Get back in the kitchen and make me some Pepper Jelly! :)
LOL!!! I actually planned to fire up the canner today - except I got hit with whatever plague is going round.
OK. You can have the day off. But, just THIS day! Then, back to the kitchen! :)
I wear all that crap just for processing the seeds...
Weisenheimer!
Whatever this thing is, it’s bad, but over pretty quick. When the local bar isn’t opening because the bartender is down with it, you know it’s bad............
I rarely got so much as a cold, but this bug was n-a-s-t-y. Haven’t barfed in fifteen years (side effect of medication before surgery), but that streak is OVER.
I didn’t get the barfing (thank goodness) but have the elephant on the chest and head, and the chills and sweats (done with them) and the overall achey BLAH feeling.
Hope you’re feeling better.
“As it is, Ive subjected myself to plenty of discomfort simply by using store-bought habaneros.”
Last year my kids humiliated themselves at a hot chicken place by ordering the insane ghost pepper chicken fingers.
The cook, waitress, and myself tried to talk them out of it.
The pain, tears and humiliation within 3 minutes of receiving the food was priceless and knocked them off their braggadocios posture of eating the hottest foods.
OMG. Those are the hottest dang wings I’ve ever eaten. Good but hot!
