The Trinidad Scorpion chilli pepper gets its name because it has a tail that looks like a stinger and a burn that feels like one. At over 2 million Scoville Units, the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion has been crowned the world's hottest. Melinda's Scorpion is our take on this sinister beast—we coupled it with our vegetable-base to balance the heat and flavour, however, that is a tall order with the savage heat of this unruly pepper.

Pairing Suggestions
