A hot shot is when you are eating some spicy food and you get one bite with a high concentration of spice. Ouch!

Here at the World’s Greatest Chilli labs, we have invented a new seasoning technique called a “Heat Spice Ladder” tm. With a heat spice ladder, multiple spices are used with different levels of heat as measured in the Scoville heat unit (SHU) scale. By having a range of heat in the chilli, the flavors are complex and enjoyable. In our chilli recipe, we use four different levels of heat.

• Black Pepper (very mild)
• Ancho Powder (1,500-2,500 SHU)
• Guajilla Powder (5,000-15,000 SHU)
• Chille de Arbol Powder (30,000-50,000 SHU)

Burner ring stacking is a technique use primarily when simmering chillis, soups and stews. By stack two burner rings on top of each other, the pot can be move farther away from the flame. This provides for a more distributed application of heat to the pot. It first became common back in the seventies on the Montgomery Ward gas ranges built by Tappan.

Many culinary experts have contacted us and asked about the meaning of superspiced. Worlds Greatest Chill Labs does not like bland food. So if spice makes food better, then more spice makes it even betterer. This is the concept behind superspicing. A general rule for superspicing is to double the amount of seasoning. This is similar to how Ben and Jerry became famous by increasing the flavoring in their icecream. Superspicing makes your food suitable for super heroes.

c-h-i-l-l-i That is right Chilli. Chilli is a great way to provide relief. It is warm, spicing, filling and soothing. Some naysayers like to spell it with one “l”. But we use two because more is better.
