Re: Wot's for Tea, Ma?
Mrs Hydro had lunch with a friend toda yso as I'll only be cooking for myself I decided to have a steak. Picked up a nice little rump, some mushrooms, an onion and a potato that I'll slice thinly and pan fry with the onions.

Re: Wot's for Tea, Ma?
Very warm today, so a salad is on the menu. Mrs H bought some makings, but I picked my first crop of snow peas today, so they will be included.
Re: Wot's for Tea, Ma?
My old local butcher moved to a Southern suburb that today I was rostered to work in. I popped in to pick up some of his excellent Pork & Veal rissoles, to be had with a Tumeric cranberry cauliflower cous cous salad....washed down with a Cab Merlot...

Friday nights chez Hydro are wine & pizza night. We've recently had a new place open up, who know how to do really good ones. Mme had a Hawaiian, I had a Mediterranean beef. Neither is traditional, but both were good, with enough left over for cold lunch tomorrow. Wine was a Peppertree 2015 Shiraz Viognier.

New 'Pepper X' hotter than law-enforcement-grade pepper spray hits the market
Pepper X, which is three times hotter than the previous record holder, has set a new Guinness World Record.

A new pepper three times hotter than the previous Guinness World Record holder hit the market this week.
Pepper X rates at an average of 2.693 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU), a measure of pungency for peppers and chilis. That's hotter than law-enforcement-grade pepper spray, which can reach up to 2 million SHU. It was created by the Puckerbutt Pepper Company, which also developed the previous 10-year record holder, the Carolina Reaper.
“The flavor of Pepper X only lasts for a millisecond, and then the heat is just overwhelming,” said Ed Currie, the founder of Puckerbutt Pepper company.
Currie is one of only two people who have eaten the full pepper alongside Danish musician and veteran pepper eater Chili Klaus. The pair sampled the pepper on the YouTube talk show 'Hot Ones,' an experience Currie said gave him cramps for four hours.
After he finished filming the 'Hot Ones' episode in New York City, Currie said he only walked 10 feet out of his car before collapsing.
"I laid down on a marble wall in the rain and groaned in pain for about an hour," said Currie. "A couple of my friends helped me get up to my room, and they gave me some ice cream, which just caused the cramps to happen again."
Pepper X is not meant to be eaten on its own. Even when it is included in food, it's not for the faint of heart, said Currie. Puckerbutt Pepper Company released a variety of products using Pepper X from hot sauce, to salsa, to “the world’s spiciest chocolate bar.”
Puckerbutt Pepper Company was initially going to release Pepper X right before COVID hit in 2020, but the lockdown stopped that process. Currie decided to release it now because it simply felt like the right time for the company, he said.
Currie said the name ‘Pepper X’ was just a placeholder because the team didn’t know what to call it, but it stuck.
“Someone said [Pepper X] looked like a baby turd in a diaper, so it was known as the turd for a long time — but ‘the Turd’ is not marketable,” said Currie.
Currie started growing his own peppers when he was a freshman in college in Michigan. He was struggling with addiction, which he said prompted him to look into ways to improve his health.
"I did research and the only people I could find who had low risks of cancer and heart disease were around the equator," said Currie. "One of the things they had in common was eating peppers with every meal."
When Currie got clean from his addictions in 1999, planting peppers became a full time job.
"My wife calls me an idiot every day watching what I do," he said.
When asked whether Pepper X is where Currie draws the line on his pursuit of ever higher Scoville ratings, he said there's not a chance. Puckerbutt Pepper Company has two more pepper varieties that Currie said they've started the testing process for, which may even end up being spicier than their predecessor.

Re: Wot's for Tea, Ma?
Lunch:
two poached eggs, and half a dozen thin spears of asparagus cooked to tenderness, with white pepper, Maldon salt, and butter;
half a dozen strawberries at room temperature to bring out the flavour, with fresh cream and a few coffee-sugar crystals.
