    Brits fall into one of two categories:

    1. as described above. “This mayonnaise is rather piquant for my tastes”

    2. grins maniacally while they empty a bottle of their homemade Carolina reaper sauce over their vindaloo/phall/magmaloo.

      I don’t know, my mom brought me some Carolina reaper sauce from the UK a couple years ago. It was pretty good, but it was not the reaper level I was used to. I kinda loved it since I could eat it by the tablespoon and feel tough as nails.

      Update- for the record, the ingredient label of it read “Carolina reaper paste, salt”.

        I use bout 10-15 Carolina reapers for a 250 ml bottle. The other ingredients are decided based on what I fancy at the time. My current one is milder because the most aggressive thing they had at the import shop was habanero. I used a combination of stewed onion, apples and dates as the base with cider vinegar and Christmas spices. It’s kinda like hp with a bit of a kick. Pleasant but not very spicy.

      Thank god somebody can articulate it! I hate being lumped in with the ‘noooo, lemon and herb Nandos is too spicy’ crowd. I just had the last of my Wiltshire Chilli Farm “Fatalii” hot sauce on my dinner, very nice sauce.
