Well it finally looks like spring has sprung....or has it? As I write this the sun is shining through the office at Hot-Headz! HQ and it's also just thrown down a quick shower of hail stones!
We're finally moved fully in to our new offices and warehouses and despite some teething problems with telecoms and computers, broadband etc. we're almost settled.
I've been a very busy man - latest releases are all finalised recipe wise. Lots of tasting and testing over the past few months have resulted in some superb and unique products all being released under our ever expanding Hot-Headz! brand.
Following on from our hugely popular Hot-Headz! Chipotle Ketchup and our delicious Hot-Headz! Habanero Ketchup we have an absolute killer Roasted Naga Ketchup. It's rich, full-bodied and HOT!
This should be available around the end of May and in time for most of this summers chilli shows and festivals.
One of the most exciting developments has been the perfection of our new Ghost Pepper Queso. Those of you familiar with our Who Dares Burns! Habanero Chile Con Queso and it's follow up sibling Who Dares Burns! Chipotle Con Queso will know just how amazing these sauces are. Great with burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and they make the best, quickest nachos in the world! The new Ghost Pepper Queso uses the deadly Naga Bhut Jolokia or Ghost Chilli as it's widely known, to add some serious heat and flavour to an already amazingly tasty chile con queso (chilli cheese sauce).
Available in around mid May - not long to wait.
Trying to do something different in this industry is a challenge but I feel we have remained at the forefront of product development with our unique take on how chilli can be used for all us Hot-Headz! out there. Finished and ready soon we have developed a Pique (pronounced pee-kay) sauce, which I believe is the first in the UK. Pique is found predominantly in the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico where for generations islanders have been making it in recycled rum flasks and bottles. It's an unblended sauce where locally grown chillies, herbs and spices are steeped in vinegar along with garlic, cilantro and even pineapple. Of course a good Pique also includes cayenne and/or habanero chillies for good measure. The vinegar takes on the medley of flavours and is great for adding zing and flavour to almost anything. The used vinegar is then topped up to keep on maturing.
The flavour is complex and hot so we've decided to give it the Hot-Headz! treatment and blend it down into an amazing sauce. Our Hot-Headz! Pique should be available end of May. Look out for it at the chilli shows.
Well that's about it for now other than more top secret ideas and products that are still in development. I'll be telling you all about them as they get nearer completion. In the meantime check out all that's new at Hot-Headz! via our New Items section of our website.
Thanks for reading.
Hot Regards
Dr. Hotz!
