Suggested Uses Dried Carolina Reaper pods are a great way to experience the world’s hottest pepper! Here are a few suggestions for using these sweat producing, mouthwatering, tear inducing, super-hot peppers. 1. Make Reaper Flakes A great use is to make hot Reaper flakes. Start by de-stemming the peppers (protect yourself and wear gloves!), then pulse them in a food processor for a few seconds. Let the mixture settle for a few minutes before opening the lid to prevent inhaling. You may want to open a window or two for some extra ventilation! When you’re finished, put it in a container and sprinkle on all your favorite foods. 2. Make Your Own Hot Sauce Making your own hot sauce is probably the most popular use for the reaper. The combinations of different fruits and veggies you can use are almost endless. Be creative! Try different types of vinegar (apple cider, white distilled, red wine) and olive oils as well. The key is to soften up the dried peppers by soaking them in liquid to re-hydrate them. And remember to always refrigerate home-made sauce when done. 3. Make Your Own Chili Make your own chili. Either drop a pod into your favorite chili recipe or use some of your home made Reaper flakes to bring up the heat. 4. Use in Soups One of my favorite ways to use whole reapers is to drop them in a nice big pot of soup. Add a pod or two (if you dare), and let them simmer in the liquid. Be sure to remove them before serving unless you want to punish yourself! RE-HYDRATE THE PODS FOR ADDITIONAL USES by placing them in a bowl and cover with a 1/2″ of boiling water. Add a little white vinegar for even more heat if desired. 5. Make your own Salsa Once the peppers are re-hydrated, add them to some tomatoes, onions, and garlic for some HOT goodness and enjoy!!! Don’t Forget, it’s better to be safe than sorry… • Always wear gloves when handling Carolina Reaper-hot peppers! • If you are processing peppers, use caution, make sure there is adequate ventilation. • If you get anything on your skin, rub some vegetable oil on the affected area, and then rinse with soap and water. Repeat as needed. ***WARNING: VERY HOT PEPPERS.
