Those look pretty good, I'd put them into a chile, add them when it's about done. I've found over time that the orange habaneros loose their heat and flavor if cooked for a long time.

Interestingly that's not the same for chocolate habaneros. This is the time of the year to get them if you can.

Do you have sunlight and heat? If you answered yes to both then you can grow peppers. They're pretty resiliant.

Just make sure when growing indoors to not overwater them, that'll fuck them royally.

Also make sure that the pots or whatever you're growing them in have proper drainage.

I didnt grow them indoor I have a small patio with limited sunlight but I'm in TX so it works.

Looks like a bastard Cubano but needy of a habanero.

I always used a few added into pasta sauce to spice it up into a spicy pasta sauce. Not for just any old spaghetti or whatever but it's good when you're wanting some spicy spaghetti sauce. I would make a huge amount and jar it up when everything was fresh and use it through out the year when the feeling hit for some spicy penne or something similar.

What does that sub sauce taste like? I always see it at Publix but have never gotten it. The bottle in the back there

That's what I kind of do with chocolate habaneros, they're only available for a couple weeks and that window slides with the weather and harvest time and stuff. So I buy a shitload and put them in the freezer, they last for a year.

I've never tried them. Are they a lot different tasting than the orange ones?

>>7067161
Yeah, they're hotter and it's a different flavor. They're still habaneros but are better I think. Try em out if you can get them, you're in TX right? You can probably grow them if you get the right seeds.

The nice thing is that the flavor and heat lasts during long cooking such as with chili or a stew or curry.

It's really hard to describe the difference, I like them better, they're not as citrusy maybe? I dunno if that's the right way to put it. Just get a few and try them out.
