An acquaintance gave me some hot peppers from his garden. Can anyone
identify their varieties?

I think the green one is a jalapeno, but I don't know about the others.
The orange one and the little red ones are *VERY* hot.


Probably Thai, jalapeņos, serrano, and habaņero, or Scotch bonnet.
I've never seen a recipe that called for more than 1/2 of a habaņero.



Serrano is a distinct possibility for #3.
