The thing is, often times these spicy chips and other foods made with ghost peppers are geared toward the mass market, and for the mass market in general, the true intensity of the ghost pepper is just too hot, so the makers tamp the heat to fit the general palate. Grab a bag of chips that promises a world of spiciness for the true spicy food lover, and we’re quite often left disappointed. NO LONGER! Now we’re making our own extra spicy Ghost Pepper Chips at home! YES! You can learn more about how to dehydrate chili peppers to make chili powders here. I fried up some sliced corn tortillas until they were nice and crispy, then tossed them with the ghost powder. The result? SPICY! Now you can make them at home, too. Let’s talk about how we make them, shall we?
Spicy Ghost Pepper Chips Ingredients
Corn Tortillas. Canola Oil. Or other neutral oil. Ghost Pepper Powder. Salt.
You’ll know it’s ready when you add a crumb of tortilla and it sizzles up. Next, slice some corn tortillas into wedges and fry them in the oil in batches a couple minutes per side, flipping here and there with tongs, until they begin to slightly brown. Add them to a bowl and toss them with more ghost pepper powder. It’s important to do this while they are hot so the ghost pepper powder and salt stick to the chips. BOOM! DONE! I love it. I know you will too, you crazy spicy food lovers. I hope you enjoy them. Learn more about ghost peppers – aka Bhut Jolokia peppers.
