Pepper
X has been cultivated over 10 years by a guy called Smokin’ Ed Currie, who also
created the notorious Carolina Reaper pepper. Coming in at a whopping, but yet
to be rerified 3.18 million Scoville rating (the scale used to measure child
heat), Pepper X is way hotter than the previous world’s hottest pepper, the
Dragon’s Breath, grown in Wales, by around 0.4 million.
Whether
you’d actually want to eat Pepper X, Dragon’s Breath or the Reaper is another
matter – there are plenty of videos of other people trying them online, which
are far more fun, like the one below. But if you’re looking for ideas for how
to cook with hot – but not that hot – chilis, take a look at this video
detailing 11 hot chilis and how to cook with them.
