My Aunts husband was from Poland and he made a big mistake at the
My Grandmother grew long thin green peppers that were very hot. The seeds were especially hot. My grandmother would put these peppers in a vinegar solution in a jar and seal the jar up. She kept these jars in a closet for one year.
She also used the fresh peppers as a decoration or something to look nice on the talble.
My Aunts husband said he wanted to try these peppers as his family had eaten peppers in Poland for many years. My Grandmother tried to stop him and I warned him about how hot they were.
Ignoring our pleas he crunched down on one and started chewing. They heat took his breath. He was in pain and only ice water seemed to stop the pain.
I suggested he go to a hospital and get the pepper pumped ut of him. He said no even though he was in agony.
He went home and I saw him the next week and he told me that when he went to the bathroom his ** felt like a hot poker was coming out of hm. Blood and pain etc.
OK I wasn't stupid enough to try a pepper myself but I did try the pepper sauce.
Pouring said sauce very gingerly on a serving of pinto beans it was very difficult to eat and like my Uncle going to the bathroom was a nightmare.
I still used the sauce but only in tiny amounts.
