What's Your Favorite Chili?

[LuxRiches]

jalapeno

Same.

Like them pickled as well or as cowboy candy

Don't mind the spice, just blowing my pallet isn't my thing.

We grow 100,000s of chillis every year, of all different types. Although don't mind them it's my least favourite crop to grow.

I love it too, especially as a topping on a fresh pan pizza, paired with other toppings.

It's called Rem Chilli

It's a spicy chili

I'm completely confused!

Wendy's

What about raw chilies?

Green and Red

All chilies are red and green Any specific names?

Oh man I had a caroline reaper once and regretted it so bad

I love spicy food and thought I could handle it. it wasn't too hot at first but then it just got hotter and hotter and nothing helped the heat.

Im not ashamed to admit that I cried lol

You should upgrade gradually over the years. My parents used to feed me chilies with meals when I was a child, saying, "I would grow up faster if I ate chilies with my meals."

Sounds like jumping straight to the last wing in Hot Ones.

Right?

Calabrian chiles.

I Googled it, and the round Calabrian chilies look like the "Dalle Khursani" or "Fireball Chilli" from Sikkim, India (another of my favorite chilies). They certainly made my mouth water!

The ghost Ppepper is really popular around where I live.

My favourite is a banana pepper. I don't think they're particularly spicy and I even like eating them on their own.

Ghost pepper is actually native to my area (northeastern India). We have a few small plants in the backyard of our home. I’d love to try Banana pepper!

I've tried most over the years and it depends on what I'm cooking or using them for.

As @t2van says, using these ina dish to add layers of spice and heat is much better than going full retard and adding 4 Reapers just to watch people attempt to eat it without crying.

When I was young about 20 and pissed up we went for a curry, a mate dared me to have a Phaal, I was literally drinking a jug of water with every mouthful, but was determined to win the challenge and finish the dish.
Never again!!!

From my personal experience, drinking more water actually makes your mouth burn more. The best way to ease the heat is to eat some food without spices!

Preciselly!

I’d love to try those onions then!

Wait - I just Googled "banana pepper" and remembered cooking curries (mostly fish curries) with them at Airbnbs in Bangkok, Phuket, Kuala Lumpur, and Langkawi. The colors varied, and the flavor was always a mix of sweetness with a bit of heat. I found them at both 7-Eleven in Thailand and BilaBila Mart in Malaysia.

Yes they often go by yellow banana pepper or yellow wax pepper. Its a cross of sweet and hot, depending on how much stress you place on them before harvesting depends on if you get more of a hotter side or sweet side it does not tend to get past 600shu (Scoville Heat Unit ) vs a Jalapeño which is around 2500-4000 depending on how much you stress it.

Great info! You must know a lot about cultivation - I'm glad to learn from you.

I remembered them because they made the fish curries taste really good when paired with cherry tomatoes, salt, turmeric powder, and cumin powder (using homemade cumin powder and turmeric powder that we carried from home in our backpacks ).

Yeah it's my job

That's great! I also dream of growing my own huge kiwi fruit farm one day.

Well start now. Kiwi take a little while to get going. Start with 1-2 plants and build up from there. No need to dream when you can act

No space? It will grow indoors just need to give it something to climb a string from a ceiling will do to start with.

Start small and scale from there. I'm sure people would want to follow that on social or with a blog, use funds and sales of any fruits or EVEN plants at market to save towards buying some land, bingo away you go
