This superhot pepper’s name comes from the fact that just one of these peppers can heat seven pots of stew.
This superhot pepper’s name comes from the fact that just one of these peppers can heat seven pots of stew. If you’re an extreme eater, there’s actually a delicious Caribbean-like tropical flavor to the 7 Pot pepper. It’s fruity like a habanero pepper with a hint of nuttiness too. It’s fruitier than many other superhots that still provide flavor (like ghost peppers), but the heat also comes on pretty fast with the 7 Pot, so the flavor is quickly competing with the wicked heat. Its fruity flavor is perfect for providing fire to tropical hot sauces, and it works well as a high heat source for soups, chilies, and stews. They can also be dried to make chili flakes or powder. Non-Isolated.
