Some Like It Hot

[RocketMan]

When I find a new interest I tend to research the heck out if it and then jump in with both feet. I researching I generally download everything I can from the internet and the put it together into some form that I can work with. The result of my research this time is "Some Like It Hot, A Noobies Guide to Life As A Pepper Head!" It is a work in progress and there is a ton of stuff out there that you had to learn the hard way that I don't know yet. If you would like to contribute or just have a copy to read through, email me and I'll send you a copy. Read through it. Make corrections, updates and additions where ever you want to and send it back to me so I can edit/add it into the Master copy. It is in Word format. I'm not looking to sell it but when complete perhaps it could be put into a download somewhere (TheHotPepper.com will have to approve) for anyone looking to get started.

Thanks

I'd be ok with helping out. Only thing is that growing peppers is subjective. Plus, there are already tons of guides on how to grow them. Exactly what kinds of things do you plan on putting in said book, or download? I can maybe see little stuff like things to help take the burn out of the mouth, how to raise your tolerance, etc.

Room for all of it. Currently there is information on Hot Pepper history, Types of peppers including pictures and descriptions, Hot sauces, Making Hot sauce, Growing, Drying peppers and Sources. You even mention 2 things I didn't think about. Especially like the idea of how to raise your tolerance.

1 teaspoon or tablespoon of sugar. Put in mouth and swish around. Swallow or spit? you decide. Burn dialed down 90% in my opinion.

Not to be a wise ass, but I think this would be a very short chapter. It would go something like this...

Beginning of chapter.

Eat more peppers.

End of chapter.

Start with the bih jolokia then work your way up. Next go with a lemon drop then up to Cayenne then up to Caribbean red Habanero and eventually you will get to the hot ons.
