Take care when handling habanero chillies – it’s advisable to wear gloves. First, wipe chillies clean then either use whole to infuse soups or stews (‘walking the chilli through’) and remove before eating. Alternatively, remove their stems and, if you want, their seeds, and soak in just boiled water for 15 minutes and blend to a paste with a splash of water before using. Always wash your hands after handling chillies!

Store in a cool and dry place. Avoid exposure to light.
