- mindcrime 14y agoHabaneros were a staple for me, up until I discovered Scotch Bonnets. And then Harris Teeter started carrying a good bottled Naga Jolokia sauce, so now I rarely have a use for habaneros. To be fair though, the flavor does vary quite a bit from batch to batch. But I've come to the conclusion that, relatively speaking, habanero peppers are pretty bad from a flavor standpoint. Taste is, of course, pretty subjective, so I make no claim that my position is objectively correct!

They're not kidding when they say "dump on everything". Not the kind of hot sauce where you put a few drops for heat; this is the kind you can use several tablespoons of at a sitting.
