Hmm. Interesting. That is certainly not the same variety as is
sold as Jalapeno, either here or in the southern USA.

Scotch Bonnet or habanero is a completely different critter than
jalapeno. Habanero is a small, (1-1.5") sort of apple-shaped (or
something like a mini-bell or sweet) pepper that ripens quickly from
green through yellow and orange stages. It is usually sold in US
markets in the orange phase. It is, if not the hottest, one of the
most potent chiles in the world. A jalapeno is a 2-3" smooth, tapered
green chile that ripens to a deep red. It is moderate on the Scoville
scale of 'hotness' (amount of capsaicin). There are many
semi-consistent versions of relative chile potency available with a
search on "Scoville scale".

Yes - I've got about seven pounds of those in my freezer. Should last me out.

Wear rubber gloves and googles while preparing them.......

Maybe. These, grown from seed taken out of commercially grown and
supplied by the ton jalapinos, are not what I would like to encounter in
a salad on a dark night.

It is true that nearly all Capsicums vary in hotness. Gardeners
wrangle about whether this is due to strain, weather, soil, altitude,
moisture, etc. The representations of Scoville scale give a wide range
for most types. I.e. 1,000 to 1,500 for Anaheim (California) types;
2,500 to 5,000 for jalapenos; and 100,000 to 350,000 for habanero. I
must say that canned chipotles (smoked jalapenos) seem to have
considerably more zip than regular ol' green jalapanos I've grown or
bought. In the chile area, YMMV is quite appropriate. :-)

What is the younger generation coming to? Read the Kama Sutra or
some other suitable manual for the use of chillis in stimulating
such appendages ....

A good tip Nick, but the discussion is about storing them, we haven't
discussed old arab recipes *yet*
