I think thats the case with everyones first time with a Habanero! Personally, I LOVE the taste of Habs, and the heat burns everytime! But man, that flavor cannot be found anywhere else, and I use Habs in every salsa that I make for myself.
However! brings me to todays entry, yesterday a family member told me had some peppers growing out in the country for me and told me I could have them since he didn't eat them nor really even know what type of peppers they were. he knew some were Jalapeno but long story short... he finally remembered his gloves and brought me a big bag of peppers yesterday!
I told him Id make a batch of salsa using only the peppers he provided me for the heat... which turned out to be, Green Cayennes and Jalapenos (both green and yellow)
the salsa turned out very, very good. Too hot for many, the fresh green cayennes have quite a bite to them, but just right when you like it hot but not Habanero type of hot...
heres what it looked like before we ate half the bowl LOL
Id never used green cayennes before, I ate one raw before making the salsa to measure out the heat for this batch...
