Fresh Chocolate Scorpion Peppers

Organic fresh Chocolate Scorpion peppers, right from our field. This stunning cocoa-colored chili pepper may be about 100 times hotter than the jalapeño. The peppers have a more mellow, less acidic flavor with smoky undertones and hints of a nice earthy sweetness — perfect for hot, hot sauces! Because of its extreme heat, the Chocolate Scorpion is rarely eaten raw. Instead, it is highly popular among chili-heads for creating artisan hot sauces, barbecue blends, spicy marinades, and ground pepper flakes or powders. A tiny sliver is often enough to heat an entire large pot of food.
