Never in my life did I ever think I would grow habanero peppers in my garden, but this year my husband's co-worker gave us several spicy pepper plants. I occasionally cook with jalapenos and use a serrano pepper every now and then, but I had NO idea what to do with the habaneros! We gave a ton to a friend of ours who will EAT THEM RAW!! Yes, you read that correctly but he pops those things in like "no big deal". Seriously, he's crazy!
I mean, look at those beauties. Even their color is HOT!
I had my hubby grill up some pineapple and tomatoes and get a good char on the peppers. Then we blended it all up and WOAH (I'm really using a lot of capitals in the post, haha)!! The salsa really packs a punch! My husband would eat it straight from the bowl, but I needed to use it sparingly on top of my burger. This salsa is on the sweeter side with a definite kick. And I mean "pain in the ears" kind of kick!
You can almost see the heat rising!
