Their Taste. Texture. Color.

Hmmph.

You're just picking the wrong peppers. Pick them for taste, not
hotness.

This is, by the way, a current argument/discussion on the

Ansteorra mail list. Whether the chili for the Pennsic Ansteorra
Chili night should be hot, as in as hot as you can make it, or
tasteful. They may do it as they have in the past, with mild
and intermediate heat chilis and a select set of mixed peppers
and spices that can be added to the two chilis, for the adventuresome.


The person heading it up this year, Seraphina, is known for good
spreads that are characterized by too much food. So anyone looking
for dinner on Wednesday of War Week, might want to wander by the
Ansteorra Royal, which will be somewhere on the Serrengetti.
