After the mention of chilli munching in another thread...
The hottest chillie peppers I ever had were some innocuous looking sorts brought back by my father-in-law from Hungary (the home of paprika).
they were monumentally, mouth blisteringly. b&stardly hot.
Now I like hot food but this stuff was just mental. There were 3 of us trying to be macho and daring to see how many of these we could eat. we all passed on the first one.
For every day munchies there are some Spanish ones I like. Not too hot but nicely pickly and munchy.
Most of the supermarket fresh chillies are limpo wristed affairs. More heat in a glacier. But some of the hot pepper sauces are mind meltingly hot. I've not tried any of the Blairs stuff yet (too scared)
Anybody any recommendations as to where to get good chillies from?
