The habanero chile has a very high Scoville scale making it one of the hottest pepper. The Scoville Scale is a measurement of the heat and pungency of chili peppers where each pepper is recorded in Scoville Heat Units (or famously known as SHUs).The heat of a pepper is measured using Scoville units: The scale ranges from 0 as in bell peppers all the way to over 2,000,000 as in the spiciest chile in the world, the Carolina Reaper Pepper and the Trinidad scorpion.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup hulled pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
    3 plum tomatoes
    1 small red onion, finely chopped
    4 cloves garlic, roasted
    ¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
    1/2 habanero chile, stemmed, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
    1 tablespoon chipotle chile en adobo, finely minced
    Juice of 1 lime
    Juice of ½ orange
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

  • Place the pepitas in a large skillet over medium-low heat. When the first one pops, stir constantly until all have popped from flat to round, about 5 minutes. Blend in a food processor to a smooth paste, scraping down the sides a few times.

    Place the tomatoes on a baking sheet under the broiler and roast until blackened and very soft, flipping halfway through, about 5 to 6 minutes per side. Cool and finely chop.

    In a medium bowl, combine the seed paste, tomatoes, onion, garlic, cilantro, chipotle and habanero. Stir in lime juice, orange juice and cinnamon. Taste and season with sea salt.

    Serve with warm corn tortillas or crisp vegetables like baby carrots, cucumber slices, radishes and sliced fennel.
