I apparently foolishly added 3 habaneros to 2 lbs of tomatillos and was unaware the rule is 1 habanero per lb (according to the boyfriend). They're just sitting in a pot waiting to boil, I could totally take one out, but according to the boyfriend we're now in a dick measuring contest with the pot of tomatillos and we can't back down.

Spicy enchiladas to follow.

Only three? throw in another one if you really want to measure!

Wait, are you going by the fishing ruler, or internet measurement?

The "we're badass if we act like this isn't really all that spicy" ruler.


It's actually not overwhelming, and the sauce is still nummy (although habaneros rarely  override other flavors, they just add a burn to them, which is why I like em), but it's certainly a hot verde sauce. You keep feeling it for a minute or two after taking a bite

If you kept the habeneros whole and fished them out first, you should be ok. If you cut them up, all bets are off.

It was all whole. I could have easily removed them, but it would have been admitting defeat.

Luckily I'm eating my enchiladas and they are perfect.
It all worked out and my spicy penis is intact.
