Chilli! All Things Chillies.

[Tony]

na im right for seeds mate... thanks

Bonda........They are a very nice chilli. My brother grew them last year and i rather enjoyed biting one off and chewing it up. A nice ballanced heat and flavour.

Use them in a sause with lots of pinapple, vinigar and some of the Jerk seasoning mix from the herbies website.

YUM!

I made a passionfruit, mind & habanero sauce the other week, and it is the business.

Just one tip if anyone uses passionfruit AND uses the blender on it after adding it is that it smashes all the seeds. Great texture, but when you have it on eggs, you can't help but feel that it's eggshell that you're eating! :lol:

a bit more chilli porn

Looking forward to some fresh chillis to make some sauce with!

Trinidad Scorpion:

Yellow 7 Pod:

Naga Morich Raja Mirch:

My 7 Pod ME (Mother of Evil)

Rocotto Red (still only 1/3 size) and dont the bloody fruit fly's love these :angry: :

7 Pod Jonah (got these seeds from a fella in the states who got them from Trinidad):

 

[Tony]

Just cut open one of the 7 Pod Jonah's to see what they were like. Definate pungent 7 Pod smell, thin fleshed and those classic yellow droplets of pure evil.

Chopped a bit off and had a chew and they certanly pack a punch!

 

[InCider]

A brave, brave man takes a bit out of one of those!

I ate a couple of habs for a bet at work. It was warm for a while. Some of the guys where vomiting, tears welling up in their eyes and red face. I thought to myself they were cowards (or never eat hot food). I went to Indian for dinner and had a vindaloo afterwards with lots of chilli pickle mmm chilli pickle!

I've got heaps of these growing... I got them 6 years ago from a mate in Brisbane. He had them growing wild all over his farm. When this wet SE Qld weather ends, and the heat begins, I'll keep a few seeds if anyone is interested. I use them in salads as they aren't hot, and to dilute habanero sauce. They're great roasted and kept in vinegar and chucked on whatever you like - steak, eggs, salsa etc..



Here is the write up:

BISHOPS HAT (PI 497974)

Species: Baccatum Origin: Brazil Heat: Mild

This variety has many names: Balloon, Pimenta Cambuci, Campane, Peri Peri, Ubatuba Cambuci, Aji Flor, Orchid, Christmas Bell and Bishops Crown to name a few!! This very unusual pod shaped variety is believed to have been transfered from South America to Europe by the Portuguese in the 18th century and is actually part of the species Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum. The plants are quite large growing 3 to 4 ft tall and produce 30 to 50 extremely weird 3 or 4 flat winged, wrinkled almost flying saucer like 1 " wide pods. The flesh of each pod is thin athough crisp to taste and they mature from green to red approximately 90-100 days after seedlings have emerged. The body of the pods have some detectable heat, but the wings are sweet and mild

[brettprevans]

alas i only have 2 chilli plants.

this one (chilli seville) i got given at xmas and isnt hot but is quite nice to eat.



this i got around may last year and it pretty much died off but has started coming back. these have some heat but not sure what they are.



I need to increase my chilli crops/plants so i can start making chilli sauce etc

 

[InCider]

@Steve - yep! Roast, pickle and store... always on hand.

I went to BNE today for Yum Cha in the Valley, and we always go to the Indian and Asia grocers there. Scored these babies:

'World's Hottest'.... we'll see. Tony probably has the title on that one! :super:

After a taste, It's not the hottest but nice enough. Quite salty. For $2.50 you can't go wrong.



These ones looked Ok... will use them for a sauce - blend up with some mango or pineapple pulp.



These 'White' chillies intrigued me...but turning the bag over hopefully to see what special chilli variety it was... it says:

INGREDIENTS: GREEN CHILLY, SALT

Also bought a curry leaf plant!
