RIP Velveeta?

you can never predict whether a jalapeno will have heat or be like a bell pepper.

You can chew one up first!

Baseline is correct. Jalapeno's are unpredictable.

I hope growers never start taming the serrano like they did in completely ruining the jalapeno here in the US. I bet jalapenos are still good in Mexico though.

Blame it on those damn aggies. Who wants a freaking jalapeno that isn't jalapeno hot?

Maybe by type, but every one I have bought here in Oregon have been consistent in the same purchase.

Looks like they average 4 times hotter too!

I really don't know the difference of peppers by looks, but I buy mine at am Asian store. They are always hotter there than in regular supermarkets, or growers market.

looks good, though I'd skip the jalapenos and use serranos instead, since you can never predict whether a jalapeno will have heat or be like a bell pepper.

I like the flavor of serranos better anyway. But the pussification of the jalapeno is a tragic thing.

I went ahead and made some after thinking of this thread.



I used approximately... didn't measure anything...

4 oz Cream Cheese
8 oz Tillamook Vintage White extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese aged over 2 years, cubed
3 Serrano peppers (stems and seeds removed), finely chopped
1 shallot
2 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 Roma tomato, chopped
Cayenne Pepper... just gave a light dusting before mixing
3 drops of Daves Total Insanity

I first heated the cream cheese in the microwave enough so it was soft enough to mix the Insanity Sauce in. I then mixed everything together and heated in the microwave enough to melt the Cheddar in.

I'm sure it tastes god but it looks like what I was scraping up off my bedroom carpet at 3am Wednesday after my dog threw up...

LOL...

What can I say. I never claimed to be a chef.

[Wild Cobra]

One thing...

I did not use the likes of Philadelphia Cream Cheese. It has to many unnecessary ingredients. I used the Winco store brand.

[Wild Cobra]

I never used Cayenne Pepper before. I used more than I should have because I don't care for its flavor. I'm getting used to the Total Insanity. Next time I'll use 5 or 6 drops.
