When you gonna send that khuk to me for sharpenin? Sorry for the thread hijack attempt, don't mind me.

This is a good thread!:D


I was thinking fondly at that point of adopting that method of locomotion, but it would have been beyond the realm of decency even at that festival.

Yvsa, I just sent you an email. Somehow I my email dropped the bottom bunch of messages off and I lost your address e mail. I have it ready to go if you can send it again and thanks for the help.

Here's Some News The Chilihead's Will Love!!!!!

"Ole! Indian chilli is hotter than Mexico's"
GUWAHATI, India (Reuters) -- The hottest chilli on earth is Indian.
Four Indian scientists have discovered that a type of chilli grown in the country's northeast has the highest Scoville units of pure capsaicin -- a measure of hotness. Called the Tezpur chilli, after the area where it is grown, scientists say the pepper has beaten Mexico's Red Savina Habanero, widely acclaimed as the hottest chilli in the world. Tezpur lies on the banks of the river Brahmaputra about 112 miles (180 km) from Guwahati, the main city of Assam, which is better known for its flavorsome tea than its chillies. "The Tezpur chilli was rated having 855,000 Scoville units... the Mexican chilli contained 557,000 Scoville units of pure capsaicin," one of the scientists, who asked not to be identified, told Reuters. The scientists work in defense laboratories in Guwahati and Gwalior. India is the world's top producer of chillies, exporting an estimated 35 tons a year.
 
Excellent info Yvsa...

One of them in a sandwich & that'll fix anybody
stealin' lunches @ work :D :D
 
The peppers are named chile. The state of New Mexico produced over 100,000 tons of chiles in 2000. I believe NM exports more chile than any country on earth.
 
The hottest I've had is the Thai "prik kee nu" (rat s&%t pepper) in the nam plaa sauce that is quite hot. Few foreigners can eat the raw prik kee nu pepper itself, and its seeds are especially potent... If nobody had ever tried Thai food, it's excellent, even if one doesn't opt for the hot peppers or sauce! ;)

A friend of mine who used to work in Hong Kong returned home one day with a bottle of what he described as the hottest sauce he had ever tasted.

I tried it and believed him. It was like swallowing nitro! :D
 
The hottest meal I ever had was curry at a thai place. When they asked how hot to make it, I said "thai hot."
The meal was still tasty and I enjoyed every bite. I had durian custard for dessert. :) I think spicy hot food is good for you in the right doses. And it sure fills you up quicker :D
As for sauces... the hottest was one Sint Maarten Old Man Gourmet Liquid Fire XXX Hot Sauce. I've eaten raw habaneros (and rubbed my eye. Ow.) but I prefer flavor to heat, so I go for the wicked hot sauces that have some flavor. Weak as it is, I still like tabasco and wasabi.
 
Even though it is rather mild, for flavor it's hard to beat the Dominican Salsa Picante by Baldom... In large U.S. cities, especially Miami, New York, and Boston, it should be able to be found. If you enjoy really hot, you can spice it up (pun intended) with your favorite fire...

Just trying to be helpful. Incidentally, vitamin C was first discovered in paprika.

The interesting thing is that the Hungarians were able to develop "Noble Rose" paprika by scorching the skin so it would slip off, and removing the seeds and other membranes/parts to leave only the 'meat' which was then dried and ground. Pleasant, mild, rich flavor.

Most any supermarket will sell "Pride of Sged" in Noble Rose or hot. Forget the California or other paprikas not from Hungary. They are tasteless ( meaning there's no flavor ) and amount to nothing but food coloring.
 
Got a bottle amid great fanfare and found it to be extremely hot, but I thought it tasted much like the dust bunny under my bed should ought to taste. I was really disappointed. I'd have to echo all votes for El Yucatero green. I've always referred to it as 'Nuclear' Green. Oddly enough it reminds me of the 'Reanimator' serum from the film of the same name. Not a film you'd want to be thinking about whilst eating.
 
Sutcliffe, I thought Dave's tasted like burnt rubber. El Yucateco rocks though! Great flavor and hot enough to make you take a sitsbath!

Rusty, I love to cook Chicken Paprikas and spatzle (don't know the Hungarian word for drop noodles). You are so right that you have to use real Hungarian paprika or it just won't work. You have to use fresh lard too, nothing else will taste the same. Dang, I'm hungry now!:p
 
Gibbs makes several levels of agony I like their nuclear hellfire. I have tried endorphin rush its hot but not much taste other than burnt tongue. Tobasco has a habanero sauce out that has heat and great flavor. Gary Burbank has some Barbeque restaraunts in the SW ohio area with a sauce called 911 screamer and it's of the dip a fork tine in and that's enough category.
 
The hottest I had was was some sort of Thai mix for fish curry,
But My favorite I make myself, .75 fill small jar with Habanero peppers fill to the top with blue label or other 100% vodka & leave for 3 months.

YYYYYYYYEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!

Tastes good & boy its hot! Learnt it of an old Rhodesian woman who reckoned it stopped you catching maleria!

Ferrous, I buy sriracha for a $1.39 at the asian market and squirt it on everything! Ate it last night w/french fries! Yum!:p
 
Sriracha used to be my favorite ketchup substitute, but I've found a Vietnamese sauce that tastes (hard to believe) better called Toung et tou (sounds something like that anyway). Local grocers also carry the garlic variety
 
Dave's Ultimate Insanity Sauce is the hottest I've tried, I believe.

My buddy and I stopped at the Taco Bell on the way home from the mall (picked it up at the Chili store), and got dinner. I poured about a teaspoonful of the Dave's on my 7-layer. Took one bite, then ordered my buddy to get two orders of guacamole and an ice water for me.

I finished it, though! :D

I like habaneros a lot, but they have flavor. The hotter sauces are made from extracts, and mostly have heat. Emeril's Kick it Up! Green sauce is very flavorful, and not too hot at all. I don't think I like incredible heat, but many flavors are enhanced by a little "bite"- like my spaghetti sauce! :)
 
Never tried the Dave's Ultimate Insanity sauce...
but I did try his Insanity Garlic Habanero tonite...great taste, but
I'm feeling the fire still smolder now...:eek:

Last night I made a blend using mild and medium Habanero sauce, Jalapeno sauce,
and a lil tabasco sauce...Tastes awesome, suprisingly not as hot as McIlhenny's.
Gonna pick up some 'heat' this week to kick it up a bit. :D
 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!! LOL... i cant beleive no ones had blairs here...

as far as pure capsaicin stuff - blairs is the only one i know of that makes PURE capsaicin. and it was a limited run - by the name of caldera. 6oz of 16,000,000 (pure extract) scoville unit fire. 1 drop per galon of oil will make it spicy.
http://extremefood.com/product.php?id=103

when i looked at an ad for tabasco and they had the scoville ratings on it, and it said 4,000, 6,000, and at most 8,000 - i laughed.

blairs megadeath is around 800,000 scoville units if i recall... and ive put that directly on my tongue, mixed with a dash of his death rain nitro dry rub....

it... it was the most amazing thing ive ever endured. i was in a room full of people - and i took my shirt off and sat there with my elbows on my knees going "oh my god... oh my god... oh my god.... NO!!!... you dont understand...... oh my god..."

when i first got it - i put a drop on my tongue... it was like i put out a match on that spot. it just went numb. the burn lasts for about 25 minutes (for comparison, eating a dried habenero pod straight, chewing it and rolling it around, that burn (wich was wonderfully pure) lasted about 40 minutes).

"Ingredients:
Habaneros, Cayenne, Ancho, Extracts in the Millions of Scoville Units, Plus the unique taste of Fresh Ginger, Molasses, and Guava Nectar Wrapped up in a Holographic Labeled Bottle. "

his possible side effects is what i use for heat, because as my freinds dad said when he doused his rice in it (a smoker, and lover of hot foods) "the possible side effects stuff... that tastes good. the mega death... thats just pain.". his response about his rice afterwords "wow. the subtle garlic flavor of this rice has completely dissapeared." it is really good tasting (possible side effects. the megadeath doesnt really taste like anything, just a touch of sweet, then seering pain.)

the sudden death is just good flavorful fun. thats hotter then most people will ever want to handle.

his blairs heat line is just kinda spicy hotsauces, like the jalepeno sauce, wich is i swear to you, pureed jalepeno's with salt. you can just sit there and eat the stuff straight out the bottle (i have several times with the chipotle slam). its too good for its own good, and you end up going through the bottle super fast.

i cant say enough good things about it...

for heat, he puts everyone in the hotsauce bussiness to shame. i beleive whole heartedly that he makes the hottest hot SAUCE (as in you can actually endure eating it straight), as well as the hottest INGREDIANT (meaning you put it in food and mix it up) on the planet. the title "your not worthy" often holds true with his hottest stuff. because more often then not, you have to know how to use it to use it safely...


as for flavor, i love his stuff, but theirs definitely more diverse stuff around. flashpoint is good stuff... as well as some others ive had... daves insanity is good to... i kinda phased out everything else i had once i found blairs though...

*sorry... i keep having to edit crappy spelling...*
