Description
The Trinidad Scorpion Pepper is the hottest chile in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Dried Trinidad chili pepper pods with stems. Net Weight: 1/4 ounce (7.09 grams) Heat Level 10+/10. Rated as high as 1,463,700 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Use sparingly and with caution. To Rehydrate Dried Chili Peppers: Place chiles in a bowl. Pour just enough boiling water over the pods to cover them. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and allow to rest for approx. 10 minutes, or until chilis are soft and pliable. For a more intense, toasty flavor, use a spatula to press the dried pod in a hot skillet (no oil or liquid) until you see a little wisp of smoke rise, flip over the chili and repeat on other side. Then, proceed with directions above for rehydrating.
