Never let your abuelita talk you into letting her dry habeñeros in the house. Had to convince her to let me take them and the dehydrator outside. My house smells like spicy.

We're doing it to get the seeds. I usually air dry them but she said "this es faster mijo."
Hot-hot-hot. I enjoy a little heat in my food, especially Indian, Thai, and Chinese, but I still want to be able to taste the other ingredients in the food.
At a Thai restaurant the waiter warned me not to eat the little pale green pepper in my clear broth soup. It imparted flavor but wasn't for chewing. The soup was excellent.

We Cubans love spicy but we do like our food to have flavor. I make a mean arroz con camarones. Top that off with tapa tio and its amazing.
People are different, but I love a little heat when it's balanced to enhance the flavor of the food. If you can find your particular range for enjoying hot spice, it is mighty good. We have a favorite Mexican restaurant and grocery that has a mostly Mexican clientele, and they seem to get the spice just right for me. It clears your passages and brings up the flavors perfectly.
I love habaneros... and sauces that include them.
Me too. Melinda’s is my readily available go-to. Habeneros don’t only add heat, they have a smokiness and depth of flavor that other pepper’s don’t
Habanero and chili in general is fantastic, love it.
Absolute flavor bomb AND hotter than hell.
Highly recommended:

I enjoy Tapito or Valentina (black) as a table sauce for Hispanic food. And Tapito hot fries (found at Dollar Tree) are great.
Like @Egg Shen , I enjoy the flavor of habanero once you get past the heat (it's fruity and slightly citric with floral notes.
Only sauce I need. Have to order direct. No one carries it around here. Enough heat to warrant ice cream afterwards.
I grew habaneros first time this year, among a bunch of other varieties. I didnt think they took. My 4yo brought me a lil sweet pepper and asked if she could have it. I said of course. She started freaking out and crying a few minutes later. Turns out the Habaneros did take.
Update: abuelita lied. She just wanted to use them to make pepper flakes. She decided to crush them at the kitchen table. My nose won't stop running. Sister gets her on Christmas lol.
I prefer their Calypso Sauce.
Pretty dang hot Scotch Bonnet peppers, but more pleasurable.
