I've raised several varities including habaneros, jalps, and hungarian wax (a great overall variety). Word of advice......if you are dicing/slicing the nuclear hot ones in mass quantity, either wear latex gloves or don't do #1 for a couple hours. And...soap does NOT remove the oil in the pepper, only time and multiple washings.
^^^^ THIS! About 15 years ago, I was making some homemade salsa. Had some really nice serranos and I diced them up and added them to the mix. Then nature came a' callin'. I washed my hands thoroughly and headed to the bathroom. Wife said you could have heard the screams for miles...
Lesson learned. GLOVES! And serrano peppers aren't nearly as hot as some of the ones you guys use. Geez, I still have blisters on poor ole Wally! LOL
