What is it?

An extremely hot chile with a fruity flavor. Habaneros are usually orange, although you may also find red, yellow and green varieties. They’re a common ingredient in Caribbean cuisine, especially in salsas, hot sauces, and marinades.

Don’t have it?

Scotch bonnets, which closely resemble habaneros, with a similar incendiary heat, are the best substitution.

How to prep:

Use gloves when handling habaneros to avoid getting their juices on your skin or in your eyes.

    Awful, simply awful. Stick with the basics with trout: lemon, butter, salt and pepper. Either pan sauted or baked in the oven, about 10 minutes, 400-450. Stay as far away from this recipe as you can get.
