Asians are known for their love of spicy food, Filipinos being one of them. Maybe not all, but most of us do enjoy our savory dishes with a kick. When Dave traveled the Mediterranean, he was given the chance to taste a variety of superhots used in international dishes, chillies that would pull our native Labuyo off its pedestal. So when he came back to the Philippines, eating the same old local chilli just didn't cut it anymore. I guess it's safe to say that once you've gone superhot you can never go back. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although I don't share Dave's passion for eating spicy food of that level, I also enjoy a bit of heat when it comes to food and had the opportunity to try out some fresh yellow Habaneros while I was in California. Watching a lot of Top Chef and other cooking shows made me familiar with a lot of not so common ingredients in the country, like the superhot variety of chillies. So when I saw some at a Chinese supermarket we frequent near our place in Sacramento, of course I just had to purchase some to check it out for myself. I could already tell how spicy the Habaneros were just by the smell permiating through the sealed plastic container and decided to just add a tiny slice of one pod to a small batch of fresh pico de gallo, to be on the safe side. The addition of the Habanero to my salsa changed the aroma all together and the heat, well let's just say I glugged a whole lot of milk after haha.<br />
<br />
Coming back to live in the Philippines, I wanted Dave to have fresh pods of these superhots at his disposal. So I went in search for these not-so-common chilli variety in the metro. Here's where my search led me to, so far:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Salcedo Market </li>
<li>Market Market</li>
<li>Farmer's Market Cubao</li>
<li>Rustan's Supermarket</li>
<li>Landmark<br /><br />The places above are known for having imported produce, so it wasn't surprising to find some Habaneros and Jalapenos sometimes. I wasn't that keen on making any one of them the go to place for when we'll be needing superhots though since I prefer to do online shopping anyway.<br /><br /></li>
<li><a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/ChilliheadsPhilippines/" rel="nofollow">Chilliheads Philippines</a> on Facebook<br /><br />We stumbled upon this wonderful society of local chilli enthusiasts and agri-people purely by accident and was truly blessed that our request to join the group was accepted. Here we found actual local growers of the chillies that belong on the list of hottest chillies in the world. Before joining the group, I thought that the Bhut Jolokia or Ghost Chili still held the top spot, but we discovered from these Pinoy Chilliheads that the Carolina Reaper was the new chilli to beat. We bought an assorted mix of chillies from one of the talented growers who had a batch of newly harvested pods on hand, all the way from Bukidnon. Ms. Charry sent us our pods thru JRS Express, and you can see how well that went from the photo below. Aren't they just lovely? But don't let their looks fool you though, they pack quite a punch when it comes to heat.</li>
</ul>

An added bonus in being a member of <b>Chilliheads PH</b> other than finding local growers of superhots is gaining access to products such as chilli garlic sauce and hot sauce made from these seriously spicy chillies, that aren't available in the supermarkets. Check out Tita Ludy's Chilli Sauce and Garlic Chilli Oil from Sir Rex of Isabela. It took a while before Dave was able to try them (around 2 weeks after we received them thru mail), and when he did, they didn't disappoint. Passed with flying colors both in flavor and amount of spiciness. The heat kept building up the more you ate it, and in his honest opinion they both go well with any savory dish you can think of.</div>

We love the story behind these two bottled goodness by Sir Rex. How they were originally made purely for personal consumption, but then friends who came over and dined at their house were able to taste it and suggested that they make some more so that they could purchase and enjoy them in their on homes as well. Now both of this wonderful spicy products are available at Sir Rex's wife's restaurant, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/titaludysgardencafe/?fref=ts" rel="nofollow">Tita Ludy's Garden Cafe</a>, in Isabela, or you can order some and have it delivered just like we did. Another reason why we love Tita Ludy's chilli products is the fact that only natural ingredients were used in making them. Yes, no chemicals, additives whatsoever. They are simply all-natural products that satisfies a chilli head's taste buds. Order na!<br /><br />

<br /><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Were you one of those who picked up on the mason jar trend? I actually didn't know what they were exactly until last year when they invaded <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a>. Now they're even on Facebook and Instagram, making it a bit impossible for anyone to miss them unless they're not into social media. From drinking jars of green juices, smoothies, fruit-infused water and teas, to flower vases and dessert jars.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I've seen them being used in cafes and cupcake shops to serve their drinks in, instead of the usual cup, glass or mug. You have to admit, drinks really do look better and more interesting when served in mason jars. I personally love the idea of using them as decorative accent pieces and for organization around the house. If I didn't have 2 toddlers and a kid-proofed home, I would've jumped on that particular bandwagon a long time ago. Believe me, our house would be mason jarred to the fullest.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">As of now we own a 16oz green heritage Ball mason jar with a Ball straw lid that I won in an Instagram raffle, which I'll be happy to tell you about in another article. I only got to use it a couple of times for my raw cacao drink sessions, until Mr. D took it with him to the office. It currently lives in his office locker, which is fine with me since he uses it everyday at work. We also own two wide mouth 32oz Ball mason jar and one regular mouth 32oz Ball mason jar, all bought from <a href="http://instagram.com/etcbycami/">ETC by Cami</a>. We originally purchased them for the birthday party (as decor) we threw for our youngest child last year, now we use them to store our fave nuts and dried seeds for snacking.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Ball, Yorkshire, Kerr, Weck, County Fair or the Libbey, Harvest Time and Del Sol Ice Cold are just some of the brands to check out when looking for mason jars. There are clear, tinted, with handle, without handle, wide mouth, regular mouth and they also come in different sizes. Not all mason jars are the same, like the Ball and Kerr which were originally made for canning and preserving food, making them safe to serve hot drinks in. Some are even freezer safe like the small quilted ones which look really nice as mini vases because of the special design on the glass.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Now that we have established that mason jars are quite versatile, you might now be wondering about where to get some for yourselves right? Well, you can get them in malls or go to Divisoria for the best deals but for hassle-free shopping at home, I suggest these legit Instagram shops:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">There are other online shops that sell them too, but I highly recommend these 4 shops based on popularity and awesome customer feedback. I have personally purchased from 2 shops on my list, Ms. Nana's All In The Bag and ETC by Cami. They both have great customer service and I got my mason jars delivered straight to my doorstep, exactly the way I like it.
