Day 352 Chocolate Sweet Potato Torte

I've been searching for a unique Christmas recipe this week and I think I've found it in a Vegetarian magazine. It's a chocolate sweet potato torte and it looks fabulous in the picture. The chocolate is mixed with the sweet potato so it's kind of like a fudgy type of business. I usually make my pineapple coconut chess pie, but staying with the theme of adding vegetables to every possible recipe, this is what I have settled on. Tonight, I had leftover Black Ghost chili and it was just as spicy as it was yesterday. I think that next time, I'm going to add a bigger sliver of the pepper or maybe just swoosh the whole thing around in the chili and see what happens heat wise. After I master the perfect chili blend, I'll work on the hottest salsa in all of creation.

Day 109 Hunt For The Ghost Chili

Today, I continue my mission to find a Buht Jolokia AKA Ghost chili, for the garden. My mom asks me why I want this pepper and claims she will not allow it near the regular peppers, for fear of spreading the heat. I think she fears the spread of personality and pzazzle, myself. The articles I've found on this pepper, compare it to battery acid  or worse. I'm in. Apparently, you can only consume tiny pieces at a time and must remove the piece you are using to heat a recipe, a small piece will heat an entire meal. If I find this spicy little pepper baby, I will make the hottest salsa, ever consumed on the planet and I will throw a party in it's honor. I cannot wait. If I can get to the Jenks Herb fest early enough on Saturday, hopefully I can find someone who has not sold out, if not, I will search high and low, I will travel to India and I will score a ghost chili, as God is my witness. Last Saturday, while pepper hunting, I had an idea, I know that you cannot cross strawberries and peppers, but how good would that be? I proposed this out loud and a friend suggested mixing pepper oil and sugar and dipping the strawberries in it, Oh my, what a flipping mouth circus that would be! Now, where do I find pepper oil? Maybe I could make pepper oil, by infusing my favorite pepper in olive oil? Not sure if that's how you do it, but couldn't hurt to try!
