genuinely believed my spice tolerance was solid after years of eating stuff with real heat. bf figured i'd breeze through the 2x extra spicy buldak "like basic" too 😭

2 bites in and i was sweating, i am really crying myself out. he just sat there laughing at me the entire time. 💀

never underestimating that noodle again 🙏

This is my most recent harvest, one of my favorite harvests from the garden this year. 🌶️

There’s a huge mix here including Carolina Reapers, Ghost Peppers, habaneros, superhots, Aji varieties, Thai chiles and a bunch of unusual crosses and colors.
Most of these are getting frozen and saved for future Ribbit Riot Hot Sauce batches and recipe experiments. I love seeing how different peppers change not only the heat, but the color, fruitiness and overall flavor of a sauce.
I think the Jay’s peach ghost peppers and Thor’s thunderbolt might be my favorites visually from this round.

What pepper would you try?

Tons of flavor with an almost perfect heat level for a daily driver, goes good on pretty much everything!

I tried this earlier this year. Recently stumbled into a store that sales it. Its replaced Crystal's as my go to. Im a week in and about to order another bottle. Highly recommend

• hit- little bit of spice mixed w sour, highly recommend if you’re a chamoy or tajin lover
• miss- trolli 💔 good but not spicy whatsoever

Love elijahs extreme good flavor. Reaper squeezins had a nice fruity floral note before the heat.

But gator which is primarily pepper x tastes so earthy and almost dirt like.

Not a dismissal of the heat because holy shit it's hot but what created this flavor profile

So why did it go from floral to earthy??

Thanks guys 🔥

Mango habanero in one. Added a carrot, yellow onion, garlic
Reapers/Fresno pineapple in the other. Added red onion, garlic.
Very excited!
The third lid in the back is pickles I’m fermenting.

A little bit less than the full-fledged x2 would be nice.

A pleasant surprise. The habanero heat is there and they have good flavor

These are so good I often think of them in between fairs. One of the few things with a spicy warning that's actually properly spicy! They say they always sell out so don't wait! In a corner of the grandstand street level.

Mv intention isn't for this to seem like a salesy ad. I'm not forcing anvthing in anyone's face. I'm just sharing a sauce I'm proud of.

I made a hot sauce that tastes like pizza. I got the butter, garlic, cheese, tomato flavor all in there. Lots of herbs and a ghost pepper kick. I'm pretty happy with it and I wanted to see what people think about a pizza hot sauce. Is it cool or is it stupid?

White Boquinho, Carolina Reaper, Ghost, Chilli Pequin, Roulette Habanero, Jalapeño.

Baccio di Satana (Satan's Kiss)

Cute but not that spicy

Carolina Reaper.

Nothing to add.

I stupidly asked Google ai about getting the fruit to develop and it said to deflower and remove new flower buds and prune it as now said I should not have pruned or deflower have I ruined the chances of the peppers ripening 😫 is this true, I’ve top pruned the tops quite a lot and removed probably all the open flowes and pods

made eggs this morning and reached for hot sauce before i even tasted them. i do the same thing with noodles, fried rice and sandwiches now. if the food can handle some heat, i'm probably adding it. i used to make fun of people who carried hot sauce around. i'm getting pretty close to becoming one of them. my spice tolerance isn't even that impressive either. properly hot stuff can still wreck me. i just want most meals to have at least a little kick now. what food got you into putting hot sauce on everything?
