The rest of you boys are just much braver than I!

Geesh - me too but I'm betting DH would want me to grow this for him. And I probably will now that I'm reading about it but --- I know it will show up in a dish that I'll be tasting!

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I should be near bulletproof by now, I know I've wished I was dead more than once after trying some of these varieties.

Babice, if you want some of the superhots dried for DH to try in a dish or two just PM me, I still have plenty from my monster season last year. Not the same as fresh, but something to experience...

what a nice offer Mark

I feel like these peppers would really make me want to die. I braved chomping on a Serrano chili and it was not pretty. I couldnt imagine of of these guys.

A nice person on this forum sent me some fatali pepper seeds. Well, one of them finally turned bright yellow in the garden - I mean 1960s hallucinogen yellow - so I picked it, and took a cautious little bite.

I thought the top of my mouth was going to burn out. It was scalding. How do you guys do it?

And what do I do with the other fatalis now turning yellow?

i like to combine the flavor of the fatalii's with tropical fruits- sweetness offsets the heat a bit. fatalii pineapple ginger sauce/glaze is in my fridge currently.

It's like weightlifting, don't load up the bar for a 300# bench press your first time in the gym.

This isn't an original recipe, lots of versions of this out there floating around, but it is a very good use for fatalii peppers. Seeing as how you're in GA and it's also mango season, this should be a good one for you. Nice with pretty much anything, for an interesting twist try it on some vanilla ice cream.

Fruity Fatalii Sauce

1 med white onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 mango, peeled & chopped
1 large peach or two medium peaches, peeled & chopped
6 fatalii peppers, (remove seeds and internal placenta to decrease heat if needed)
3 1/2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 1/2 tsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
juice & zest of 1 lime

Directions
Sweat the onions & garlic in the oil for a few minutes until soft, but do not brown
Add the mango, peach and fatalii peppers and bring to a low boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently, covered for about 5 minutes
Add the vinegar and puree the contents of the pan in a blender until smooth
Stir in the honey, salt & lime zest and juice and allow to cool slightly
Pour into sterilized jar and refridgerate until ready for use, allow at least 1 day for flavors to meld

Makes about a pint

This is a fairly mild and fruity one with a tropical flair, I like it on chicken, shrimp or fish. This is a good entry level sauce, you can increase the number of peppers used to bump up the heat level to what you're comfortable with.

For example to whip up a quick shrimp salad I'll take some of this and mix it with a bit of plain yogurt and use that as the dressing.

DH says this sounds good. (read: babice will likely be trying this soon...). DH has a habenero cookbook he uses for a lot of the stuff he makes us. He makes a yummy caribbean jerk chicken with habeneros that is surprisingly not too hot (although I do have a bit of a tolerance built up). It has cinnamon, pineapples, oranges, mangos, etc. and is very yummy.

Looks good Mark.

I like making one with mangoes and carrots...sometimes adding pear and pineapple too...with scotch bonnets. Not for the timid....but definitely full of fruity flavour.

To answer the original posters question re seed available, I have T.S. Moruga plants in my garden from a 100% certified source. I will send seed to Sandhill Preservation presuming I get a reasonable crop. From what I can see so far, I have half a dozen ripe and several hundred more that are getting ripe.
