jmohme Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) I am going to start this off by saying, that I prefer not to cook and most that know me would agree! That said, there are some things that nobody else will cook for me, and candied Habaneros is one of those things. I start by spiral slicing a boat load of habaneros. Of course I discard the seeds and stem and them boil them. This step has the added benefit of clearing the sinuses of every human with a ¼ mile radius of the stovetop. After they have been boiled and drained they get simmered for 20-30 minutes in a a sugar, ,honey, and water solution. Once it has thickened and the papers start becoming translucent, they are let cool for an hour and then pulled out and dried on a rack in the oven, sprinkled with sugar. Here is the finished product.

I am told that they are great in small pieces mixed into vanilla ice cream, but have not tried that yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.Cicero Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I know a couple of my fellow shooters who need this. I think I must grow habaneros this year, assuming Witless start allowing people to buy their freaking vegetable plants again! (I always plant jalapeños and chiles or Thai peppers, but not always scotch bonnets... those last 2-3 years when dried around here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamboolman Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Tobasco Sauce is just right for ms gamboolgal and I. Jalepeno's, Tobasco's, Cayenne's is hot enough for us as to the peppers. This video seem's appropriate for this topic ? Edited April 15, 2020 by gamboolman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janice6 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Read an article saying that the reason that there are so few cases of Stomach Cancer in India is because of the hot food. A co-worker from India says that when he goes back to visit every couple of years, he can't eat the typical hot food anymore. He adapted to the bland American diet. If he would go back and stay he thinks he would be accustomed again in a sort while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zonny Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I've had and really enjoy candied jalapeños. Have a jar in the fridge now. I've researched a few recipes/technics for making them. A little different in that they are not dried. They are more like a sweet pickle. Not sure I would enjoy the habaneros; a bit too hot for me.

misterfox Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I like a bit of heat at times. Just enough to bring out different flavors, and to add interest. Heat for the sake of heat. Hells no. Food shouldn't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
