Mainly for my friend the Extreme Chili Guy, Chris Fowler, who reportedly maintains a collection of over 1,000 chilis in South Wales, here’s an album of pictures from a little exhibition showing off the diversity of chilis at Chelsea Physic Garden this autumn!
Explosive Ember
Gelbe Kirschen (Yellow cherries)
Spaghetti
Volcano
Purple Tiger
Fish (variegated leaves)
Elephant’s Trunk
Umbrella
Cherry Bomb
Jamaican Hot
Carolina Reaper (renowned as the world’s hottest in 2013)….and I used some of this in ny dinner two nights ago…but it was a bit disappointing. Do they lost a lot of their strength after drying and storing – mine was about 2 years old
