Welcome, Jalapeno Lovers, to our June Newsletter

Hello, Jalapeno Lover! June, June, June. We love June! It's getting a bit HOT in our area, which we love because chili peppers LOVE the heat. We've just moved our jalapeno and other plants into the garden and they're starting out strong. Exciting time of the year!

Also, we hope you've begun thinking about grilling. Nothing goes better with chili peppers and warm weather than grilling. We've been grilling like mad already this year. Madness?

How Do You Core a Jalapeno Pepper?

Coring jalapeno peppers is basically the process of cutting out or removing the pepper insides, making it hollow. This is done in order to remove most of the chili pepper heat since the vast majority of the heat resides in the pepper insides. To learn more about the anatomy of a jalapeno pepper, click here.

We've created a quick video to show you how to core a jalapeno pepper.

New Recipes!

We're always cooking new jalapeno pepper-themed recipes! We're doing a bit of rearranging of the jalapeno pepper recipes page, so be sure to check it out. Check out the Jalapeno Pepper Recipes page here.

Jalapeno-Apple Stuffed Chicken

Chicken is always a great choice when you're looking for lower calorie, healthier meals. A great way to liven up chicken is with a stuffing. We've included one here that is fairly low on calories yet high on flavor.

Artichoke-Jalapeno Puree

A Facebook friend sent us a wonderful hot sauce called "Evil Ooze" Hot Sauce so we incorporated it into an equally wonderful Artichoke-Jalapeno Puree as a bed for some white fish. Good stuff on all accounts! Why artichoke? It's a bit of an in-joke, but we do hope you enjoy the recipe.

Check out this great review from Amazon.com: "When my relatives in Louisiana baked and grilled jalapeno's with cream cheese wrapped with bacon, I thought, what else could you do with the jalapeno pepper? I found out through jalapenomadness.com! Yum. If you like jalapenos or a little spice in your mouth, order this book. You will be happy you did. I ordered 3 of these recipe books for gifts.

USDA Announcement – Pink Pork is OK at 145 Degrees

I’m not sure how my mother would have reacted to this seemingly blasphemous news, but the USDA has recently changed their cooking guidelines for pork, saying that pork, and all whole meat cuts, only need to achieve and internal temperature of 145 degrees. 

Keeping Cilantro Fresh

Fresh cilantro is a must in the Madness household. The dried stuff just doesn’t cut it. I keep fresh cilantro around for a number of different dishes – fresh, homemade guacamole, tacos or burritos, even sprinkling over tilapia fillets with a bit of melted butter and lime juice. It is one of those unique, versatile herbs that lends such a delicious flavor addition to so many meals.

Chili Pepper Tagliatelle – A Homemade Pasta Recipe

Jalapeno Miss and I were having a bit of fun in the kitchen with our new pasta maker and decided to see what happens when we incorporate a healthy dose of chili powder into a basic homemade pasta recipe. The results were rather fun. You won’t get a massive burst of heat or flavor addition to the actual pasta from the chili powder, but what you do get is a wonderful red color to the pasta that goes great with a silky sauce like carbonara or Alfredo, or maybe even simple olive oil. When you’re looking for a fun and interesting presentation, this might be an option for you.

A Chili Pepper Gardening Question

We recently received an email about growing jalapeno peppers and serrano peppers and thought we’d share.

“A couple quick questions for you. I planted jalapeno & serrano seeds (separately of course) about 10 days ago. I haven’t seen anything out of my jalapenos but my serranos have sprouted. My first question is how long to wait before I scrap my current jalapenos and start over if I see no sprouts."...
