Anchovy pizza loaded with hot peppers: cayennes, serranos or habaneras is my #1. Hot wings would be #2. I like good tacos too; Al pastor with roasted onions and peppers on corn tortillas. Those look pretty good. I’m guessing, lengua, barbacoa, carne asada y polla.

I also love pizza with shrimps, tuna and smoke oysters.

Barbacoa is one of these tacos, you fail in other four, but mentioned some other delicious options. Vivan los tacos 😋

While I give you all due for having the right to eat that...your'e not right in the head or stomach. I would be DRT if I tried that.

Now the pizza, from Campisi's in Dallas on Mockingbird? Yeah, I'll buy one if we meet up there.

My stomach gets mad at me sometimes. As I get older I eat more carefully. But my garden has habaneras and chiltepin peppers. Take care my friend!

How did you get the chiltepin to grow???I was told a bird has to eat them and pass the seeds for them to grow…

A friend gave me a tiny plant in 2009. I still have it: 14 years olds. I start new plants from seeds every few years to keep the strain alive. The attached photo is as follows: (left to right) 14 year old original plant, 2 that were started from seed indoors this February. I always heard the bird thing too. Must be a story from uña esposa vieja. Old wive’s tale. If you look closely, the far right plant is flowering.

Also, they are called bird peppers because birds do help deposit the seeds. Also called bird’s eye peppers due to their small diameter; similar in size to the eye of a small bird.

Congratulations…I have even heard tales of some Americans going down to Mexico who have tried to get them to grow…I personally buy mine in Mexico when I go on vacation and bring them back…A small amount of them goes a long way…

Most of mine get dried, then crushed in my molcajete. I use a recipe from Las Vegas, NM. It is called Toasted Chile Pequin Salsa. The lady who created it is Tonie Apodaca. I never met her, but I love her recipe. I got it while traveling through that town. It is simple, and so delicious.

I don’t use them in salsas…Though I love them in caldo de res or caldo de pollo…I usually crush 4 or 5 of them between my fingers into the soup…But I have learned to be very careful going to the bathroom afterwards…Of course I had to learn this the hard way…lol…One day I will buy me one of those little wooden pestles they have made especially for these Chile Pequín…

Here is an example of a grinder I am going to buy on my next trip…I don’t think it will be one with a donkey head though…

Yes. According to my friends, pequin means little in Spanish. Any little pepper gets lumped into that category. Like “sandwich” in English. It is a general category; lots of different choices. Same with pequin. These are the official chiltepins. Verified by friends who came from “Del Rio” TX.
