RE: Scotch Bonnet Red Pepper easy sauce recipe

in #blog6 years ago

Scotch Bonnet peppers are not ghost peppers. Ghost Peppers are WAY hotter.

The Ghost Pepper is more elongated, and around 1 million on the Scoville scale for hotness. Scotch Bonnets are around 80k to 400k, so at their hottest, less than half as hot as a ghost pepper, and can be as little as less than a 1/10th as hot.

I like extremely hot things. When I want something spicy, I'll use 1 or 2 scotch bonnets in my personal serving of food, or maybe 3 or 4 jalapenos, but that's more of a flavorful hotness. I however, would not be caught dead eating a ghost pepper, because I might literally die, or at least suffer greatly. A single ghost pepper is used for a large cauldron of spicy food. You also might suffer greatly just trying to cut it, even if wearing gloves. In contrast, I never wear gloves to cut scotch bonnets or jalapenos or thai chilies or anything else like that.

Ah i see.. Interesting..Learned something today from u @grekpowered.
Will removed the ghost chilli name from my post. Over here i don't know why most of the people called it ghost chilli.
Alot didn't know what it's actually called. 😂
Then i looked up in google and found it's actually name scotch bonnet peppers.
How did u actually handle scotch bonnets or jalapenos or thai chillies?

Anyway thanks for sharing a good info to me😊
