Okay, as a extreme hot aficionado I just don't see the draw that these peppers have.
I'm a big fan of the Habanero and like to eat one a day, Savinas are my absolute favorite! The Raspberry taste is awesome.
But Ghost peppers have a flavor that reminds me of gasoline. They're nasty as fuck and hot in a way that just makes me go, "Yuck..." It's like a bitter, back of the tongue nastiness that tells me that I've ingested bumper stripper. No idea why anyone would voluntarily eat those disgusting things. At least with Habaneros, they've got a delicious flavor. Ghost chilies are nasty.
The Carolina Reaper is a little better, as in, smells slightly better, it's a little more like dandelion with a hint of car exhaust, but they too taste like shit and they have that long lasting hot that seems to last all fucking day. Interestingly enough, they *WILL* make your pee hot. So that was an interesting side effect. Hotter than fuck though. But if that's what you're looking for, shit, I'll just give you a can of Skydrol and let you take a hit of that... View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quote History Quoted:

You can coax out a little more flavor by slow sauteeing the peppers in a little oil with a little salt. Takes the harshness out and spreads the heat into the oil so whatever you cook gets the flavor and heat well distrubuted
