2009 Habanero crop report

16th Habanero Season at Flying Pie!

Crop Report: August 2009

In the first week of August we went through two cases of habanero peppers and sold over 100 pizzas. We’ve shipped four Habanero pizzas to Delaware to two guys who read about our firey pies and just had to try the Triple Habanero for themselves.

The peppers are glowingly orange this year and they are even a tad hotter than last year. This year the peppers hail from the Yucatan which, being so far south, can grow some seriously hot peppers.

We hope you’ll come enjoy this season with us! We plan to continue serving the Double and Triple Habanero pizzas through the month of August. 

Love,
The Flying Pie-ers


 

     Atop original dough and our special red sauce, this flaming pizza has cornmeal, mozzarella, chicken, olives, and just the right amount of habaneros. The cornmeal soaks up the flavors from the chicken, olives, and habaneros and carries the rich flavors throughout the pie.
 

Jason walked into the house and grabbed a slice of pizza from the open box. Before taking a bite, he scoffed at KC who was sitting on the couch saying "WOW!" and fanning his mouth between bites of pie. I said to Jason, "That's the double habanero, you know?" No comment and then a large bite. KC says, "You're gonna know in a few seconds." Suddenly Jason says, "What the hell?" 

"I told you it's the double habanero!" 

Jason finishes the slice and sits down with a funny look on his face. A few minutes later he says, "Why do you eat that? That is the hottest thing I have eaten in my life!" Upon hearing this I threw my fist up in the air and said, "YES! Howard would be proud!" To which KC laughed. Jason proceeds to bitch me out for a few minutes. He was SO mad that I would let him eat it. 

After the bitching subsides, Jason waits a few more minutes and I see him reach into the box for a second slice. "WHOA, this one is all you, buddy," I say. Jason responds with, "I think I am eating it just for the whole experience of it. I have never had anything that hot!"


The pizza we ate on that fateful night was VERY hot. It seemed hotter to me than the pizzas we had on last Wednesday. I thought that the kitchen had given me 'special' treatment since I am an employee, but Mo said she weighed it out correctly. My friend KC said it was noticeably hotter than last year, as well. He said, "Last year I ate seven slices, no problem, this year I can barely get through 2."
