Right about now , we chileheads are in chile heaven ( cogitate hotter than hell ! ) since it is the peak of the chile harvest home . I have a bumper crop of habaneros – magnanimous ace – and here is what I am doing with them .

Before I go any further , I will give this serious warning right now : if you are manage hot chiles like habaneros ( or Pisces peppers , jalapenos , serranos , etc.)–Be Sure to Wear Gloves!I am here to monish you since I have experienced the serious tan . Do not touch your heart , olfactory organ , mouth or other mucous membranes when handling chilli .

I am eating chiles , peculiarly habaneros , everyday . Yeehawl ! Since habaneros are one of the blistering capsicums , sometimes I do not even use a whole one in a dish . However I do use a whole one in my invigorated salsa , which I make every solar day or so . you may find that recipe using jalapenos at / item/9647 / quick - and - slowly - homemade - salsa – just sub 1 or 2 finely diced habaneros for the 6 to 8 long pepper .

Another salsa which highlights habaneros is my Mango Habanero Salsa , which I make with ripe mangos , red bell pepper , habanero , lime juice , onions , ail and cilantro . It is odorous and spicy and tart and pungent and oh - so - good . I am also canning whole habaneros besides making salsa and march both in a hot water bath . See these well-to-do instructions:/item/7237 / whole - pickled - peppers

Last night , I tested a African - Influenced Sweet Potato and Peanut Soup and added a habanero and it was quite a taste sensation . It will be served at the forthcoming Herb Harvest Fall Festival at the Ozark Folk Center State Park the first weekend in October.https://www.ozarkfolkcenter.com/events/?isofc=1&id=1438I also created a Spicy Stewed Okra featuring garden Lycopersicon esculentum , okra , onions , ail and yes , a habanero . I ’ll post these recipe closer to the event .

Last calendar month , I attended the Women ’s Herbal Conference in New Hampshire , where 600 women from around the humans foregather to discover about and celebrate herbs . One of the class that I teach was “ blistering , Hot , Hot : Why We enjoy the Capsicums ! ” There , I demonstrated how to make Habanero Shrub . I will post the formula so that you could make this yourself . It is inthe creative herbal homewhich I co - authored with Tina Marie Wilcox . I also entered it in the amiable and elixir competition at this year ’s International Herb Symposium and issue forth away with a Simply Delicious Herbal Products Award./item/14282 / habanero - bush
