… and just one Rainer Pepper

…. to give it a little ‘zing’. To make it ‘pop’. To make up for the lack of Sriracha sauce currently residing in the flat.

Rainer Peppers are amazing. They come in all shapes and sizes. So far, the “just one Rainer Pepper” has been small. Those are gone. Now there are good size Rainer Peppers, safely ensconced in the freezer for when one is needed. Two sandwich bag sizes have been enough for six months of ZazzzOOm. More than enough. It is possible that the Caustic One will have to make some chutney with the cherries so that there is room in the freezer for the 2014 crop of Rainer Peppers! Rainer Peppers are *not* the kind of peppers that one just pops into one’s mouth and enjoys, unless one has an asbestos tongue. The Caustic One does not.

One of the great perks of being in Ag research is being in proximity with Really Good Organic gardeners. Who like to share their wares. Rainer is one of those amazing people. I am very fortunate to work with him, as he is in charge of my polytunnel tomatoes!
