I`ve been wanting to try cooking Reapers for a while, so figured I`d start simply and make a salsa. I thought the flavour of the Reaper would pair well with ripe peaches, so here`s what I did.
8 fresh Carolina Reapers
2 large Peaches
3 large cloves of Garlic
Juice of half a Lime
1 teaspoon salt
The resulting salsa was delicious and HOT. The flavour of the Reapers shone through beautifully, but the flavour of the peaches was also very clear and clean.
Dry roasted 8 Carolina Reapers and 3 large cloves of garlic in it`s skin in a large pan on high heat. Slightly charred the surfaces, turning as I went. I then cut up 2 large peaches and put them in the dry hot pan, too, roasting until each side was caramelized a little.
I took out the Reapers and garlic and let them cool, while finishing the peaches. Then I let the peaches cool as well.
I chopped the garlic roughly, then threw the Reapers and 5 quarters of the peaches in a blender and blended until smooth. i also added the juice of half a lime and 1 teaspoon of salt.
