Review #1

Capsicum most hottest

If you're a garden grower of habaneros and don't quite know what to do with your harvest this book provides some good ideas. Since the habanero is so hot not much is needed to heat up a dish, but this little book provides so many suggestions that you'll have many choices. Many of the recipes are very exotic and unless the caribbean is your usual vacation spot you may not have tried these recipes. Jerk sauces abound, as do searing soups, spicy seafood and that super bowl favorite, salsa. The recipes are worldly yet simple. Wouldn't your seafood loving guests just love a little grilled Salmon Borracho, topped with habanero-lime butter with a side of Belizean Coconut Rice? The average stocked kitchen could serve this fare without a trip to the store. This is just one example of your passport to fiery cuisine. There are so many different types of salsa recipes that the combinations will amaze you. After browsing this book you'll be ready to create your own salsa variations or follow the easy recipes provided. The glossary is basic but the mail order sources provided are valuable for those who need seeds to grow their own heat or have some habanero products delivered to their home. An addional treat is the bibliography which lists various books for further exploration. A great book for the habanero chile head.




Review #2

Habanero Heaven

For anyone who has ever eaten, grown, or even heard about the Habanero, this is the book you must get. The Habanero Cookbook contains a plethora of information on the world's "hottest" pepper from its history and growing to its safe handling and cooking. The book has dozens of fantastic recipes, altough they all seem to be of the exotic type and mysteriously they exclude the mighty buffalo wing, which make waiting for my garden to grow an excruciatingly long time. One word of advice, if you already own "The Pepper Pantry; Habanero," skip this book, it's simply a larger version of the Pepper Pantry




Review #3

Habanero History

This book is great for the history of habaneros. I did not know there were so many varieties of habanero. However, there are only a few recipes I would try. My taste runs differently from those in the book.
