My Habanero peppers are going gang busters. I planted them, I guess as a novelty, and now am wondering what to do with them once they mature. I can my jalapenos and roast them fresh on the grill. I dry my Cayenne. I am wondering what in the world I am going to do with these super hot Habaneros?

“I am wondering what in the world I am going to do with these super hot Habaneros?”

I didn’t plant any this year. I did Poblano, Serrano and Jalapeno, which is plenty hot for us.

One year when I planted Habaneros, I only planted two plants. They are SUCH a pretty pepper plant! Anyhow, from TWO plants, we got an entire grocery bag FULL of the suckers.

Husband took them to Senor Peppers, our local Mexican restaurant and they were very grateful. (Don’t tell the Health Department, but I’m pretty sure a Habanero would fry any germ that it touched, LOL!)

couple of yrs ago we planted habaneros too hot for most people to eat. we made pickles and stuffed habaneros in the jars and got the best hot and spicy dill pickles you could imagine. i had never tried it before but it was worth the effort. if you like hot stuff and dill pickles try this out, but be warned those pickles will be sizzling.

Chocolate-covered habaneros...mmm-mmm! My wife makes a tasty hot sauce from our habs, as well.
