What's Your Favorite Chili?

[LuxRiches]

In our northeastern part of India, we have a chili called the Ghost Pepper, or Bhut Jolokia. It's incredibly hot and I absolutely love it. Most people can’t even handle a small bite, but I can eat one to three of them in a single meal. It’s something I’m pretty proud of!

According to Wikipedia, the Ghost Pepper was certified by Guinness World Records in 2007 as the world’s hottest chili pepper at the time which is about 170 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. I’ll admit, I’m kind of obsessed with it.

No, I haven’t, but I would love to try if I get the chance.

What’s wrong with not trying? How would you know if you don’t even try? Chillies are God’s most marvellous creation on Earth.

What’s your favourite chili from what you’ve tried, though?

I usually just buy a few, wothout knowing their name. It's just called Chili.

There's a thing called zhoug, whis is very popular in Israel. It's a spreadable chilli and herbs hot sauce.

I had it during my stay at an Airbnb, but I’m not sure if it was during our Puri trip or the Varanasi trip. The taste was a mix of sweet and hot and I loved it.

You should definitely try ghost pepper, or Bhut Jolokia. You’ll love it.

Wow! I googled “Zhoug”, and it made my mouth water. I definitely want to try it!

Well, if it’s in your stomach, I’m assuming it’s a 10/10, no matter how it looks!

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

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

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.

Calabrian chiles.

 

[t2van]

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.

 

[MisterF]

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!!!
