Hot! Hot! Hot!

These finger-length peppers may be small, but don't be fooled. They pack a powerful punch.

Made homemade salsa tonight, and let's just say that 1 of these peppers would've been enough. Used 2 large, vine-ripened tomatoes, 2 jalapenos, 2 small purple onions, 1 tsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp cilantro. Next time I'll use fresh cilantro and only 1 jalapeno. :)

Delicious! But a little hot, hot, hot if you prefer mild.
