Recipe idea for your 'Mamba F1' hot pepper harvest. Prepare a fresh salsa with a small piece of chili, two ripe tomatoes, a bit of onion, and cilantro. Chop the vegetables separately so you can adjust the heat as you go. Remove the stem from the chili and add a very small amount of flesh to the salsa first. Mix with lime juice and a pinch of salt, then taste before adding more. Wear gloves when handling hot peppers and avoid touching your face. Serve this topping with tacos, grilled vegetables, or a plate of rice and beans. The color stage and the thickness of the flesh change the culinary result. Thin flesh cooks quickly, while fleshy peppers hold their shape better. Cut the pieces evenly to avoid having firm bites next to overcooked parts.
