Author Garden: What Am I growing? Mike Harper Gardener Member # 2938 posted                       I started some seedinglings off two months ago, I left town for a while and when I got back my parents and planted them but not labled them. Most everything is blooming and I now most everything by now but one plant. I thnk it is a hot pepper, it has yellow flowers, long stem, and the fruit is round and has spikes, it smells very much like a strong pepper. I think it may be a habenoro. Am I right? * * * * Mike Plants: 2 | From: Louisville | Registered: Jul 2004  |  Seeded: 12.220.162.166 weezie13 Compost Queen! Member # 772 posted                       HI Mike, Got a picture??????? I haven't grown habenaro's, I do grow Jalapeno's, Cayenne's, and (green, yellow, orange, and purple I tried this year???) I always thought those pepper plants had a white flower, again, I am nooooooo expert??? Someone else may come thru with some suggestions for you, hang on!

Also, they come in yellow, orange, chocolate and white colored forms, but are green when immature. I grow Caribbean Red habanero as well as jalapeno, serrano, cayenne, ancho, anaheim, and giant thai hot peppers. I use the habaneros to make caribbean jerk for grilling pork chops. It's awesome if you can stand the heat. * * * * Terry May the force be with you Plants: 1370 | From: Copper Hill, Virginia | Registered: Apr 2004  |  Seeded: 65.134.21.230 Phil and Laura guest posted                 A PEPPER with Spikes...YIKES Please a Picture!!!

Member # 2222 posted                       Caribbean jerk This is good on chicken or beef, but for some reason is just awesome on pork. Bil Penzey of Penzey's Spices calls it one of the world's great dishes. I found the recipe online and modified it a bit by increasing the allspice and adding ginger. Next time I make it I'm going to try adding the the flesh of a whole mango before pureeing. 1/2 c. HEAPING allspice berries 1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar 6-8 garlic cloves 1 2-inch piece of fresh ginger 4-6 habaneros (I use 6 seeded and pithed RUBBER GLOVES) 1 tbsp. ground thyme or 2 tbsp. leaves 2 bunches scallions 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. nutmeg 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper 2 tbsp. soy sauce 1 mango (optional) Blend in a food processor till smooth. Pierce meat. Marinade in refrigerator for 2 days. Last time I used one recipe for 8 butterflied pork chops in 2 layers in a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. * * * * Terry May the force be with you Plants: 1370 | From: Copper Hill, Virginia | Registered: Apr 2004  |  Seeded: 63.158.160.219 obywan59 Garden Pro!

Also, it's best if you grate the ginger before you puree the mix. * * * * Terry May the force be with you Plants: 1370 | From: Copper Hill, Virginia | Registered: Apr 2004  |  Seeded: 63.158.160.219
