Hot Tips

How to judge the heat of a chilli

Generally the smaller the chilli the hotter the heat. By removing seeds and flesh this you will decrease the heat of the chilli. Wash your hands thoroughly after coming in contact with chilli, as the capsicin (the oil within the chilli) burns when it comes in contact with your eyes or sensitive skin.

Glossary

Elephant Garlic

Milder than regular garlic and larger, this is actually a member of the leek family but is used as garlic would be.
