Let me know if you need some more seeds i have some dried piquin pods from last season like the ones on my pic i might have some chiltepin also.

I usually get my seeds from pods people give me. The ones mail order ones i bought seem to have a low germination rate for me. I get my tepins, piquins, and similar type seeds and put them in a pot and water them everyday with the pot siting in full sun for like 8 hours a day. Come to think of...

I got a huge bag of dried bhut jolokia's a couple months back; I use it like i use all my other chiles. Sometimes i'll just nibble on it while eating my main dish, make improvised table sauces with whatever is around or in season(onions, garlic, tomatillos . . . .), throw some in a pot of...

What's the rush to eat super hots? There are tons of great mild, medium, and hot peppers. Enjoy the ride, no need to being in severe pain every time you eat a chile pepper just to train to eat a super hot. I say let it come when it comes. I believe there is way too much focus on super hot...

Re-phrase your question so it makes sense.

When i saw the video i noticed some things that didn't add up, cool story cleared it all up. I love piquins and chiltepins.

I have 5 manzanos and was ready to rip them out the alway get treehoppers and havn't produced anything in the year I've had them, and have been looking pretty horrible but still alive. Finally i noticed the past couple months the manzanos i have in the backyard in full sun for at least 6 or 7...

I love boiled cabbage, have some red rock cabbages growing in the back yard.

I've been playing in bands for about 16 yrs now. Started guitar with punk bands then went to more bluesy and country stuff. I'm mostly playing fiddle and singing now. Here's a band practice recording, very raw.

In Mexico there are many differences in word usage from town to town and state to state. From what I've seen a chipotle is a dried smoked jalapeño for me me at least. I've heard chipotles can be made from different types of peppers which is probably also true. Sometimes a company in the...

There are so many great musicians who never get very much recognition for their skill. For being pretty popular i think Brian Setzer doesn't get much recognition for his guitar work. I like seeing him pullout every trick he knows on his solo's and seeing if he can find his way back, he plays it...

Definitely piquins, or tepins in my shirt pocket or in lunch pail. I go to parties and take my own hot sauce sometimes.

Damn, I've never even considered seeds when eating tepins, or cooking with them. I guess i was raised on some gritty ass sauces, growing up we only threw the seeds out of bell peppers and maybe dried california chile.

I can't afford to buy a lot of expensive hot sauces so i usually made my own fresh sauce every week. If i do buy a bottle of hot sauce; used when no fresh sauce or fresh pods are available, I get 1 liter bottles, Tapatio, Valentinas, Guacamaya . . . Used for emergencies, or chips. Nothing wrong...

I got some seeds from some pods i got at a farmers market let them dry for a few months and just threw them in a pot in late June last year. They started coming up around middle and late august, and some in september. I have about 7 of them and none of the flowers have turned into pods, I've...

I planted a lot of tomatillos last season, so many were destroyed by slugs. I started making nightly patrols at around 11 and I would cut every slug i saw in half. Once the plants got a little bigger i didn't have to worry so much about the slugs. I just started my tomatillos for this season...

Wow, I faintly recall seeing spicy cheese dip in a velveeta commercial years ago. I've never seen it in person though; I don't go to restaurants much. I heard fu yung means with egg. As in egg fu yung (Egg with Egg). Nothing like standing behind some teenagers who order a couple cheeseburgers...

My grandfather spoke Nahuatl but it's disadvantages to be associated with Indigenous culture in Mexico (Mexicans have been and still are encouraged to disavow connections with it). He eventually lost use of his native tongue and never taught his children. Avg Mexican is about 75% indigenous...

What's in Mexican pickling spice? When i make whether it's with serranos or jalapeños i pickle them with carrots and onions blanch them, add salt, pepper corns, oregano, minced garlic, white vinegar, water and some olive oil. I don't know what the olive oil does it's just whenever i open...
