The 7 Deadly Scovilles

October 25, 2010 | Written by Amber Sawaya

Steve and I are avid gardeners — and this year the pepper haul was something to behold. We made salsa, we made chili verde, we gave away peppers to anyone that knew what to do with them—and lastly we made chemical warfare hot sauce. Everything in there is local and organic (except the salt and vinegar). I put together some labels and took pictures of our little hot sauce army.

Alternate Labels for the 7 Deadly Scovilles

Most of these are already earmarked for various friends—however—if you have a demonstrable love for hot sauce let me know about it and maybe we can arrange a bottle. Be warned though, this stuff is HOT HOT HOT!

To learn more about the Scoville Scale — visit WIkipedia page for the Scoville Scale — or check out this guy’s awesome interactive scale:

We used 7 different peppers in this sauce (technically eight since there was a banna-pepper/brazillian-pepper-of-doom hybrid in there too) and these are listed on the bottle from mild to hot:

  • banana
  • anaheim
  • ancho
  • jalapeño
  • serrano
  • brazilian pepper of doom
  • habanero
  • + garlic, vinegar (with”The Mother”*), salt
* What is vinegar with “The Mother”? It’s some weird organic stuff we brought with packing that confused and delighted us.
