    What to do with all these Carolina Reapers?

    What to do with all these Carolina Reapers?

    I once got a MFRB of chocolate ghosts and scorpion peppers and decided I would make my first true ferment. 1 + years later, the sauce has mellowed down and is definitely tolerable in terms of heat and has great flavor. I know it's an investment in time, but totally fun and worth it

    what can you do with these? how long would you say the shelf life is? What's the spice scale? I'm not the biggest fan of ridiculously spicy pods, but i haven't had the ones in the first two pics, looks like they would be good for stuffing, and maybe peruvian cuisine? I might take the box off...

    What grows in the blistering Fla heat?

      i haven't grown it, but i've seen it at the redlands fruit and spice park.    Learning curve yes, a lot is a matter of trial and error and what works best for you. I had a ficus and gumbo limbo, so white flies were a big problem for me. Between natural sprays and lady bugs, i've been able to...

        it's an invasive species which decimates the environment, native species and causes infection for not only humans but other animals as well, domestic and wild. with that said, the larger ones taste pretty good, not enough meat on the smaller ones.

    there's the basic family taste: chinense, baccatum, etc etc, but individuals in each family have their slightly different taste. I personally love scotch bonnets, but like i said, order stuff from people here and have fun sampling them, you can make a ferment or whatever you want from all the...

    Where To Start?
