Seeing as it is Hallow'een, I should mention something a little scary – Dragon's Blood!
No, it's nothing to do with Wagner or Harry Potter. It's an award winning extremely hot sauce, made with Naga Jolakia chilli peppers (the world's hottest, which we also sell dried). Surprisingly, Dragon's Blood is made in the UK.
Use with discretion, as it's 200-400 times as strong as Tabasco*. It's not just for chilli heads though - when used in single drop quantities, it adds a certain something to a wide variety of dishes. Just make sure your hand doesn't wobble when pouring – best to measure onto a spoon rather than straight into your cooking to be on the safe side!
Next Hallow'een I'll tell you about Vampire's Revenge!
* Chilli strength is measured on the Scoville scale. Standard capsicums are 0, Tabasco is 2,500 to 5,000, and Dragon's Blood
comes in at a searing 800,000!
