Red Scorpion chili peppers have a floral, fruity taste with an intense, pungent heat that builds in intensity and may become unpalatable to some. Red Scorpion chili peppers are rarely used raw, as their intense spice is often considered unpalatable, and caution should be taken before consuming the pods as the peppers can cause visceral reactions within the body. The peppers are most commonly added to hot sauces or salsas to add light flavoring and intense heat. When blended into hot sauces, bar-be-que sauces, and marinades, the spicy sauce can be used to flavor chicken wings, cooked meats, pasta, Asian noodle dishes, chilis, stews, and soups. Red Scorpion chili peppers can also be dried, ground into a powder, and used as a spice, or dehydrated and reconstituted for extended use. Red Scorpion chili powder can be used sparingly in dry rubs, rice and beans, and any application where hot sauce would be applied. When handling the peppers, it is important to wear gloves and goggles to protect the skin and eyes from the potent capsaicin. It is also recommended to work with the peppers in a well-ventilated space to avoid irritating the throat and lungs.
