I like the flavor of unripe (green) habernero, its almost a chocolate flavor, and if you slice them in your egg pan then put the egg on top, and top that with fresh raw ones, the crisp fried ones mix with the raw for an amazing flavor. Same with serrano, green is when they taste best. We did ghost and reaper last year for a lark, the reaper is just to hot, no good for flavor so we didnt grow them this year, and only one ghost plant. Im growing jalepeno and habernero for the food pantry this year, we will see how that goes, i picked a bag of them (if youre going to bag peppers, always paper, never plastic) today. Whats really good is to dry ghost peppers in the oven (when no ones home) and dry green habernero in the smoker, mix 2 to 1 favoring the habernero and grind them in a mortar and pestal stems and all. That smoky habernero and chemical castration ghost heat makes a powder thats out of sight. I have a mix growing this year, habernero, serrano, ghost, jalepeno, cyanne, some lemon flavored hybrid, and a few others. This is the summer i intend on hitting that perfect flavor to heat ratio in a hot sauce.
A warning, i discovered the hard way messing around with ghost. Dont dry them and crumble them over food right before you eat it. It makes it into your upper intestine before it rehydrates enough to leech its capsciacin, and unless youre into hours of glass shards, knives and angry rats going through your guts, either use fresh or powdered, if using crushed, rehydrate it first On Jul 16, 2017 9:11 PM, "Robert Andrews" <[email protected]> wrote: > Seriously weapons grade, used in some spays... > > On 07/16/2017 01:46 PM, Jaime Solorza wrote: > >> Never tried those.
