I love your stories and sharing of your experiences, from the peppers, to your pooches, to the shrimp eating spoiled cat It sounds like a nice time setting up at the market, I wish I could go there

Pam said:I dunno, I checked at BiLo last night and all the hot peppers were the same price, $2.69 a pound. On an entertaining note, they had the serranos labeled as habs, the habs labeled as jalapeños, and the jalapeños labeled as sweet cherry peppers.

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Pam your peppers are hot, but you are too sweet! Really, the story tells as much about you as the cat shrimp lady.
I have an idea, why don't you sell your pepper variety canned in mason jars... it would have great visual appeal, add some garlic, bayleaf and brine. You can sell those for a few bucks, make a more substantial profit.
Pam said:Well, if ya sweet talk me a little bit, I could be coaxed into sending you a care package. Geographically, you're just down the hill from me, so I think I can pop a package in regular mail and the peppers would get there fine.
*bats eyes coyly*
xgrafcorex said:hough, i'd say you are a pretty kick ass lady as it is. can't say i know many women that are into hot food and good beer with intelligence and a sense of humor to boot!
Oh, that's some sweet talking, alright!
I have 3 Bhut Jolokias that should be fully ripe by Monday or Tuesday, so pm me your address and I'll send them and fill the box with whatever else I have ripe. That will mostly be Limons and Lemon Drops, unless you want something milder?
Pam said:No I'm not! And I'll thank you to stop besmirching my reputation!
See now, you're getting back up there toward work. The song I should be reminding you of is Cyndi Lauper's "Girls just wanna have fun".
LeatherMouth said:Ok, let's settle the analogy on a Sriracha sauce then. It's bold and spicy but also sweet, which makes it a lot of fun! Too bad I'm nowhere near South Carolina, otherwise I swear I would show up at the market and start a conversation undercover. Then, when you least expect it, I'd say in a speakeasy fashion "TheHotPepper forums..."
By the way Pam, what kind of pepper are these ones below, the small red ones? Serranos?
Pam said:No I'm not! And I'll thank you to stop besmirching my reputation!..
So Pam, would you say you are a baccatum as far as heat level?Pam said:pffft! You'd have to pay Matilda's cute tax to even get close to the table. And then there's Abigail, and then you'd be begging for mercy...
I think those are Dedo De Mocha peppers. We had the Fish in a separate basket. Dedo De Mocha are baccatuum peppers, and a nice medium heat (or "unworthy" in bentalphanerd speak). They have that nice fruity baccatuum flavor, though, and I cook with them a lot.
