Do you like hot & spicy food /ck/? If not, why not? If so, what's your favourite heat level?

>> No.11610187

bit of a jump there, there are several chili varieties that are in the 400,000-800,000 range, and several others in the 1-3M region as well.

Highest I can tolerate without needing milk is raw habanero. Generally prefer something between 25k and 50k however.

Scoville rankings are fos. I made a habanero hot sauce from my homegrown peppers that is mild compared to the blend of tabasco peppers and habaneros fom the same plant and tabasco are ranked 25,000-50,000 while habaneros rank 100,000. That tabasco/habanero blend is mouth numbing. I started uncontrollably drooling after a small taste. Hope it mellows.

There are other factors that determine how spicy the peppers will be. There are different varieties of each kind of pepper that are more or less spicy than others. I've had jalapenos that were spicier than cayenne. I think it depends on what nutrients are in the soil, how much you water them, and stuff like that.

What's the atomic shits vs hot peppers ratio? Is it even worth the suffering to go hotter than that?

I always assume it's based purely on the seeds of the pepper.

>> No.11610863

>>11610705
Yeah, but that's my point. The scoville rankings have nothing to do with the real world. In addition to my tabasco/habanero diatribe, I've had jalapenos from the same plant that varied from bell pepper heat to cayenne level. Shit just has no meaning.

>> No.11610868

I like hot sauces that have kind of a tangy kick to them while still being really spicy. There is a certain point in scoville though where you're just doing it for the sake of masochism.

birds eye daily, Habanero whenever i feel like a bit more heat and smokey flavor.

Birds eye are the standard most common chilli in Australia.

Scoville measurements vary considerably from plant to plant of the same species.

I like spicy food. Habanero are pretty easy, they're not that hot. I don't have too much experience with peppers beyond that though; they're just not really available near me and I don't have anything to prove by hunting them down.

Hate it. Honestly adding spice to an otherwise good dish ruins it. Unless the peppers add good flavor than it'd acceptable but hot sauce is a fucking joke. That shit is literally designed just so things are spicy.

>> No.11611871

I fuck with Ghost Peppers and Reapers and enjoy the burn and mild sweating, but only the tiniest amount or any dish is completely ruined. If after a few mouthfuls it's so hot that you can't taste a fucking thing, it's pointless.

It’s a measurement, not a ranking, you retard. The list shows the average for each variety of pepper. That doesn’t mean there won’t be outliers.

The hotter the better. I get a nice post-heat euphoria after eating something so hot that I involuntarily clap or begin to hiccup.

Once you can eat things that hot, then you can start enjoying dishes that are less hot than that in a way that the average eater can't, because you can really taste all the other flavors without focusing on the heat -- things like la zi ji chicken and other szechuan dishes come to mind.
