Calvin-- We love your mix! Excellent flavor, and the most interesting hot I've ever tasted--it really fills your whole mouth. Must be all the different kinds of pods. Anyway, we made a pseudo-scampi with it: 1/2 # shrimp, peeled & deveined 1/4 orange bell pepper, chopped 4 green onions, sliced 2 lg. cloves garlic, smashed and minced Generous sprinkle of Calvin's powder (1/2 - 1 t) salt and pepper 12 oz. linguinetti, cooked and drained, 1/2 C cooking water reserved Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over med-hi heat until hot but not smoking. Saute chopped bell pepper in oil until softened. Add green onions, garlic, and shrimp. Dose with salt and pepper and Calvin's to taste. Saute until shrimp are almost done. Add cooked, drained pasta to the skillet, and stir in the reserved cooking water to bind; toss until everything is well-combined. We had grated parmesan with it; chopped parsley would have been a good choice, too. Serves two generously. It's *really snowing* here. Margo in Mishawaka
