The world's hottest chile is the recently discovered Indian pepper
called naga jolokia or bhut jolokia, a C. chinense X C. frutescens
hybrid rated at 850K to 1M Scoville units.

The red Savina variety of Habanero clocks in at 350,000-580,000 and
regular ones at 100,000-350,000.

The Thai birds eye ranks 50,000-100,000 and even as high as 150,000
which is plenty hot for me.

I enjoy and sometimes grow Cayennes which are under 50,000 but
mostly I like the milder but flavourful Annum varieties such as
Anaheim, Cherry, Banana, Fresno, Hungarian Wax, Pepperoncini and
Poblano/Ancho cause I can eat more of them at one time.

           Habanero stuffed olives

I've been making homemade hab olives for several years, since kc
scott published his method...i buy "mezzetta super colossal spanish
queen olives" 10 oz bottle, pop the pimentos out with a chopstick
and insert a healthy slice of hab or other tasty...sometimes red
serranos, garlic, ginger or a combination...repack the olives in the
bottle, filling the spaces between with spices and garlic, then pour
the brine back in...let them set for at least a week to mellow, then
break out the good gin...

For Christmas gifts, I sub the brine with vermouth...one year, I
made "stoplights" in short bottles with a layer of green serrano,
fatali, and carribean red stuffings...right pretty...
