The Hottest Pepper Ever: Introducing the Really Mean Bhut Jolokia Pepper
I recently recieved a shipment of "BHUT" from Cross Country Nursery.
These are the greatest hot peppers ever! I have actually tried small section straight and it's some what life altering.!
I just completed a salsa featuring Bhut,red savina,and devils tongues for a party today.It's mind blowing hot but you can't stop eating it.
I have also made a hot-wing sauce with them,which is simple the best I've ever tasted...."J'

I agree with gretchen. My affair with Naga Started in 2006 in US (of all the places on eart!! Because I am from India).
Once you taste Naga, then you are done with. Nothing on earth can save you from this wonderful Naga. You just surrender to the heavenly taste and flavor.
I have written my experience on by blog if any one cares to visit.
I have written,
Falling in love with Naga as I wrote before, is an unique and once in a life time experience that lasts your life time."
Viva Naga/Bhut Jolokia !!

The Hottest Pepper Ever: Introducing the Really Mean Bhut Jolokia Pepper
just tried a third of a pepper with eggs to keep the flavors neutral. it is by far the hottest thing i've ever tried. even after i washed the pan, the residual oil carried over a lot of heat to my pan-fried veges.

Here's a recipe idea. Grill the peppers (outside grill) until the skin is charred. Finely mince the pepper and add to your favorite wheat bread recipe. This adds a lovely lip and front of mouth heat to every bite of a sandwich.

My first pepper just hit the ripe stage. Any further suggestions for it's use would be welcome. More on the bush.

I tried one back in August. I purchased two, one was used in marinating and grilling a lamb tenderloin, the other I tried raw. I think it's better as an ingredient, though a little goes a long way.
Eating one raw was perhaps the most intense food-related experience of my life (details of the weird nervous system side effects in the link below). Oddly, since then I haven't really been craving hot peppers. Once you've tried the hottest, everything else gets kind of boring.

The Hottest Pepper Ever: Introducing the Really Mean Bhut Jolokia Pepper
The introduction of bhut jolokia to the USA was pretty much the biggest thing that happened to me in 2007. Granted, I edit Chile Pepper Magazine, and super-hot foods are my beat, and my love.
For me, the best thing about bhut jolokia (aka naga jolokia, aka ghost chile) is that you can get a dish to an extreme level of heat without sacrificing flavor. I am not a fan of pure capsaicin extract, which is used to give some XXX sauces their killer bite -- to me it tastes bad and overwhelms anything it touches. The same amount of fresh, dried or powdered bhut adds intense heat, but also contributes a wallop of flavor.
If you're looking to try bhut jolokia and don't want to grow it yourself or cook with it, I heartily suggest the Jolokia product line from Cajohn's. Their salsa, hot sauce, sausage (!) and many other products have intense, pure pepper flavor and mind-boggling heat. Check out our post on this and other salsas:
