A bit different from Tubby’s but I did buy a platter of locally made cheeses (one with scotch bonnets) and two Cornish Pasties. 🤪

Twinnie ,what's scotch bonnets,on cheese? XXX

[Corrina125 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to TheTabbyCat]

Scotch bonnets are a really, really hot peppers. Catmad's mouth must be lined with cast iron!!!

[TheTabbyCat Administrator LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

Ahhh. Thanks Corrina. Musn't argue with Twinnie then.lol

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

You are right, cast iron mouth. After the pancreatitis I am retraining my pancreas and stomach to accept hot food. I love cheese sandwiches with sliced raw onion, sliced fresh chilli and mayonnaise. I’m not kissable after that 😻. 🤪😂🤣

[Corrina125 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Catmad10]

Mmmmmm, that sounds gorgeous, reckon I'd snog ya to get some of that!!😊😊

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

Silly billy, you really did make me laugh out loud. Now let’s get serious, pucker up I’m on my way 🤪

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

I had the scotch bonnets in cheese yesterday evening with crisp bread and pickled onions. By the heck it had a kick to it. 😝

[Corrina125 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Catmad10]

Lol I know I use them when I cook curries xxx

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

Now you’re talking. Delicious

[Corrina125 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Catmad10]

Will have to look out for the scotch bonnet cheese. Didn't know there was such a thing!!

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Corrina125]

Neither did I. This was part of a mixed cheese platter from the farmers market so assume locally produced. They sold cheeses, chutneys and jams.

Have you tried growing scotch bonnet? I did so for the first time last summer though I’ve grown chillies for years. I have made chilli oil out of some of them especially to drizzle on pizza and pasta.

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to TheTabbyCat]

Scotch bonnets in the cheese so the cheese is 🥵🔥deliciously tasty

[louloubelll LONG TERM WINNER]

Looks like a nice market!👍😊

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to louloubelll]

It is in summer when stalls pack the market square. It then looks very much like Tubby’s market with loads of fresh colourful veg.

[Arizona- 26 Months Winner in reply to Catmad10]

Sounds wonderful in the summer! Thanks for sharing 💕

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Arizona-]

[Arizona- 26 Months Winner in reply to Catmad10]

I do love my fresh chilli but I think I’m a whimp compared to you as I don’t think I can go any hotter than 350,000 SHU.

I do have the sauces Absolute Insanity and Total Insanity in my store cupboards and like to put a few drops on a bacon sandwich and I’m unable to eat Pot Noodles without chilli flakes 🤪. Within moderation I do put chilli in most things I eat (exceptions being on my cornflakes).

[3fingeredjake 29 Months Winner in reply to Catmad10]

😂 I do tend to go overboard at times, specially with chilli flakes, but I do live to regret it haha

PS... The great Dorset Chilli Festival is always a time to stock up on Andrex and comfy bum......

I love to see pictures of places that I've never been to, especially when it's taken in a different country than where I live ! 🙂

[Catmad10 LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Taylorsunshine]
