That's a very attractive chile, and once again I learn a lot from Smokemaster -- thanks!

phucvu, how is this chile used in Vietnamese cooking, and what does it taste like (heat level, etc.)? If you harvest and save seeds, I'd appreciate getting some to grow next year. I have several varieties I can trade for them.

What would we do without ya Mike. Those peppers look narly.

there's no special way to eat it and if it's as hot as my uncle peppers 3 or 4 years ago, you wouldn't want to use it as seasoning, but something on the side for people who can stand really hot chile. it was so hot that i stopped eating chiles for awhile because every time i tried i would get the hiccups from the first bite. but lately none of them has matched the intensity of my uncle's pepper.

just send me an email and i'll try to send the seed to you when they ripen up and i still remember by then.

No E mail Kentishman...Trade list...
