Also, would you put the whole pepper in or cut it in > half? last year (after the open fields), i decided to make some pepper vodka...i put a savina, a hab, an aji amarillo, a couple of those little yellow mystery chiles (that jim didn't grow this year, a serrano and a jalapeno in a fifth of vodka... it was (for me) undrinkable...too hot...but it WAS pretty... think if i was doing it again, particularly for christmas, i would use a whole green serrano and a ripe (red) jalapeno...maybe poke a hole or two in the chiles to let the vodka in, so they don't mold... if you want it hotter, you could use a savina and a jalapeno, or you could use any other chile to flavor it, then take it out and add a red and a green chile for the presentation... a bottle full of those little bolivian rainbows, topped with vodka, would be spectacular... bill did you donate food today? visit http://www.thehungersite.com once a day ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!
