I used the habanaro first and while that batch was heating and I was chopping the infinity I took a little piece the size of a small black peppercorn. It didn't bring tears to my eyes but a little sweat and it took about 5 minutes for my mouth to calm down. I cut back a little on my portion to mix with the honey then.:rofl2:
Wife's pumpkins are blooming big time.

What camera are you using to take those pics?
Yeah, I was wondering too. Really nice photos! I like the pumpkin flowersQuote:

Infinity 7-pot: Plenty strong and covers most of the honey taste. Not overpowering but it has been over 10 minutes now and still a slight after burn.
The true test will be to use these with something else. For a first impression I think that the habanero would go good on cheese or toast and the Infinity for a barbecue sauce.
It is the wife's camera and it's an older version Olympus Tough TG-2. It has a gajillion settings. Pretty trick.Quote:

I forgot to add I push everything through Photoshop to edit images.
That's terrific! It sounds like the process works and could be replicated. I'm wondering if making the dried peppers into almost a powder, like sending them through a coffee grinder, would increase the pepper flavor? I like that you were able to get a couple different flavors and heat levels that could be used for different purposes.Quote:

They are hot. A neighbor thinks they are serrano. The plant is very prolific.
Guess I should have put a ruler in the pic. They are about 2 in. (5cm) long.

I've been picking up some free veggies at work recently. I have a cookbook with a couple of pickling recipes I want to try. It seems now is the time.
