I have a salsa recipe, I use all fresh ingredients, it's a mild recipe but my husband wants a very hot salsa. I love the recipe that I have; so how can I make it a hot salsa while staying as close to my recipe as I can. I already add two jalapeno peppers as part as my recipe and I keep all the seeds.
The hotter the better is what he says.
Thank you !
 
now farmers have been breeding jalapenos to become less and less hot, i love to use chipotle peppers in adobo sauce in the can because they are smokey and come packed with a nice garlic tomato sauce
 
Habanero Pepper Sauce. It is around 300,000 Scoville units, about 10x hotter that Jalapenos. Use a few drops (3-5) at a time until the heat is reached. It doesn't add any of its own flavor.

Your husband is like me. If the salsa isn't HOT, it might just as well be ketchup.
