I Grew a Cherry Bomb!

That cherry pepper was born on a farm, adopted at the Union Sq farmer's market and raised on my window sill. It was my most exciting plant of the summer and now it's chopped up and infused in some T-Jo olive oil.

I tried a nibble and it honestly wasn't so hot... but I chopped it up, threw it in a jar with some fresh Cayenne's from Spot's Pop's garden and some extra virg. Stay tuned for a tasting report...
