So I cut it up and brought it in to work today.... A bunch of people wanted to try it, so I cut everything up smaller than originally planned.... One sniff and people started backing down.... It was pretty hot, nowhere near what I was expecting.... The piece of a bhut I had was much much hotter.... My buddy who tried this with me today said it was worse than the 4 bhuts he has eaten whole....
No burning while cutting it and removing the seeds, but I didn't get much of anything on my hands.... One hand washing with soap and I couldn't taste any heat on my fingers.... Habaneros, I don't get any burning either but it takes 3-4 hand washings to get everything off....
Did he get a piece much hotter than mine or did he get bhuts that weren't as hot as the one I had? And if this was really that hot, shouldn't my hands have felt something, or am I one of those special ones that don't feel it on my hands?
