Perhaps I'm being naiive, I don't know, never tried this chilli sauce lunacy stuff but 1 drop in 4kgs of mince, 8 cans of tomatoes and 2 tins of beans would seem to be a relatively good 'dilution'.

Famous last words but it can't be that bad, can it?

With such a large amount of meat etc I think you should be ok. But do not get too brave hehe

anything above Dave's Insanity Sauce really is quite silly. No flavour. Just heat.

Unless you are cooking a chilli for 20 poeople, or are using it for a prank / dare i cant see the point. Looking at everything above 1,000,000 its just pepper extract (pure cap). Which is what pepper spray is. Thats not a condiment, its a weapon!
Not true Blairs Jersey Death, actually has a pretty good taste to it and is a nice addition to a chilli, or gives any dipping sauce a nice spicy kick lick

600,000 Mad Dog 357 with Bullet Keychain, from Ashley Food Company


I have some of this, and it is properly hot! Had a laugh with it on my stag do, and a tiny, tiny amount in a tin of beans is ok but generally it is just a gimic

Tried some of this at a BBQ the other week.

The bullet is like a small serving spoon that shows how much to put in. Its tiny.

I tried a tiny tiny little bit of it on my burger. and I mean a tiny little drop.

Christ its hot.

But I didn't think it lasted that long. The initial burn was pretty bad but it didn't last too long.

Plotloss - 2/3 drops in 4kg of meat. Plenty.

A colleague has been away for the weekend and stumbled across a chilli sauce shop.

He came back with a bottle of Dragon's Blood 15 for me to sample, rated at 6.4 million. I dipped my little finger in and had a taste this morning with my coffee.

Really hot, my tongue and roof of mouth burnt then went numb, they are still like that 1/2 hour later!

Recommended.

Might take to classic Le Mans with me to pep the breakfast horse in baguettes up a bit.

Sounds like he was in Brighton and found Fiery Foods in the marina. Dragon's Blood is made by the owner of the shop, Pete Seymour, otherwise known as ChilliPepperPete.

I once drank a bottle of 57ml (I think) Tabasco sauce for £40 (Kitchen staff shenanigans) and I couldn't stand up for about 20 minutes due to my stomach cramping so hard.

I dread to think what some of this stuff is like. I would try some of the lower end stuff, but surely the top end stuff just demolishes nerve endings biggrin

When is the chilli then plotters? Will have to come find this thread so see how it goes.

P.S It was worth it. Mostly because the head chef thought I was a legend. Ah, they were the days.

i beat you all - i remember playing a prank on my 9y.o. son to which he got me back several days later by bringing me a toasted cheese sandwich with about a tablespoon of that st on it. I was surprised and stupidly didn't think anything of it until I took a fair sized bite. I drank a pint of milk, and my entire face was humming and throbbing like I have never felt before or since, for about 2 hours. It was beyond hot, and there are no words.

oh and I used it a few times in cooking but it seemed to just be raw heat mixed with an acridly smoky taste, and was a bit overpowering. I like a good bit of heat, but the flavour of it wasn't great and it did take over everything I put it in. I launched it in the end.

I do sometimes wonder if these Scoville ratings are becoming a bit like the contrast ratio claims that flat screen TV manufacturers make... i.e. completely meaningless in the real world
I suppose it depends on the individual. The scale (and warnings) are there for a reason.

I gave a large dab of 700k to a bloke at a BBQ last weekend. Chap used to make the cover page as a body builder, built like a brick st house, fearless etc and will try anything once.

He was having uncontrollable mild convulsions with his arms/upper body for 10 minutes afterwards, looking extremely miserable.

Kinda put a dampener on the guests at the BBQ too frown
Yet others seem to be OK tasting chilli on the scale 10x the strength...

A dab is vastly more concentrated than the same amount mixed in with food surely. So unusable hot sauce not only ruins food, but also social gatherings? smile

If you're using extracts, surely you're not benefiting from any flavour and therefore it's either willy waving or for adding pure heat.

Feel free to correct me though.

My crop of Naga's have just started to turn orange, so I put one chopped up on top of a bowl of spagbol, jesus christ the heat is incredible and I eat birdseye chillies for fun.

No fun to be honest, there's no way I'll manage to eat the 40odd that have grown.

Freeze them. At least then you'll be able to use them as and when. The super-hots (Naga, 7 pod/7 pot, Trinidad Scorpion) really do need to be very finely chopped if they are going to be added to a dish, so that you don't end up eating a large chunk. I blend them with a tiny bit of olive oil, which allows me to distribute the chilli evenly throughout the dish.

With normal caveats for not rubbing your eyes whilst doing so, or touching your g/f up until hands are thoroughly washed. biggrin
