A very cute little habanero pepper is getting ready to turn orange. I harvested a ton of peppers a month and a half ago and thought the three plants I have were done. I left them in the ground and hoped for more peppers. I think I'll get another dozen if I'm lucky.
By the way, these peppers are HOT! I can't eat one raw. Although I made an asian marinade for chicken the other day, and put a finely chopped habanero in it. The marinade was not too hot for me. I'd say, if you could handle a kung pow chicken at PF Changs, for example, you could handle one habanero in your chicken.
Your blog is a delight! I am in So. Fla. also and love to be in the yard!
