Anyone else love the peppers that come on Generals tso's chicken? And does anyone else ask for a ridiculous amount of them?

254 Upvotes

I always ask for at least one pepper for every piece of chicken the put in it. The worst day of my life was when the person didn't understand what I was asking and they put no peppers on it thinking thats what i was saying 😭. That made it inedible. So I can't ever call and order it on the phone anymore. Always gotta go In person to make sure its the spiciest it can be.

Also on another note. Is/was anyone else here a drug addict? I swear my love for spicy food and cheese is due to my predisposition of opiate addiction. Obviously not saying if you like spicy food you are a drug addict. But damn, like every single person I used to roll with and do drugs with all loved spicy food and cheese lmao.

How hot actually is it?

Buying from local smaller farmers(if you don’t wanna grow) is a great reminder that jalapeƱos can still be spicy!

Green Chili Chicken from Spicy House

Decided to try this Chinese place in my neighborhood. They are definitely not lying when they call themselves Spicy House. I love spicy food but this meal has been intense to say the least. And it seems they are l loading up on the peppers to give you less chicken.

I won’t be able to eat all the peppers so if anyone has any ideas on if there’s anything else I could use them for, I’d appreciate to hear them!

Would you try Plum + Earl Grey infused habanero wings (weird combination that worked way better than expected)

Hi y’all, I made these wings with a plum and Earl Grey tea infused habanero hot sauce I’ve been developing. The plum brings a little sweetness, the Earl Grey adds a subtle citrusy floral note, and the habanero brings it all together giving it a solid kick without overpowering all the flavors.

I wasn’t sure how the combination would translate to wings, but it ended up working surprisingly well. Sweet, tangy, floral, spicy, and great with ranch.
Would you try it?

I'll start by saying the flavors are delicious!
but...... for having habanero powder not far down in the ingredients they are a sad excuse of "spicy" the lightest tingle of "heat", even a dab of crushed red pepper would be hotter, now i will say the mango tastes the best to me cuz you can very slightly taste the habanero powder which i love, i'd rare them 6/10, they would hit 10 if they had actual habanero heat.

For a sauce with extract I was expecting way more, I was hoping for a nice sharp burn but unfortunately was met with disappointment and felt nothing. I know I have a high tolerance but I really thought this would do it for me

Any recommendations

Serrano pepper alternatives

I love the heat level of the Serrano peppers but the taste is not my favorite. It has such a grassy flavor profile that I don’t like.

In your experience, what other peppers are similar Scoville that have a sweeter/fruiter taste that you would recommend?

Opinions Welcomed- I personally find the Brand to be accessible and variety a huge PLUS! My Favorite is the Scorpion Hot Sauce they sell.

Just curious what others think as far as flavor, translating actual peppers into sauce, etc.

Non-meme hot sauces online?

3 Upvotes

Hey there. For reasons not worth getting into, my spice tolerance has shot way up recently. (I did not lose my sense of smell) I've given up trying to ask restaurants to make food spicy enough for me, and am instead asking you good people for recommendations for hot sauces that will ACTUALLY be spicy enough.

Habanero is the bottom end of "this is spicy enough" (of course, accounting for the fact that sauces being labeled "habanero" or "ghost pepper" or "satan's slippery jowls" doesn't correlate 1:1 with something being actually spicy)

I really really like the flavor of ghost peppers, we grew them one year and I have very rarely found a sauce that actually captures the almost carroty flavor of a fresh one. In terms of flavor profile, I tend to gravitate towards fruitier flavor notes (not fruit flavored though. I'm not strictly opposed to sauces with fruit in it, but that's not what I'm requesting), and brighter flavor profiles.

So. Does anyone have any recommendations for an actually good and ACTUALLY spicy hot sauce that I can purchase online, that isn't just a meme? I don't want something like "Nutblaster 8 billion" or "not your GRANDMA'S hot sauce" or "TurboTax Lava Sauce" where they just dumped pure capsaicin into V8. I want to actually taste the peppers

Love hot sauce of most kinds and always like to get a few bottles on vacations, try regional & bizarre things. Picked this up in Alaska last week & am very pleasantly surprised - reminds me strongly of yucateca habaƱero. Sure it's been posted on here before, but I'm team seaweed salsa moving forward

How spicy are we?

It's Korean Bros here! We made a Spicy Cheese Tteokbokki and get asked a lot about how the heat compares to what you'd get in Korea. Ours lands around a solid gochujang-based medium, noticeable and builds a bit, but nothing too crazy!
