Jalapeno poppers

So yesterday

I made Jalapeno poppers

which were very yummy
but I think I missed a step somewhere

because while I enjoyed them tremedously
they were significantly hotter than most I have had
and I have a feeling most people
[i.e. people who dont like food practical joke hot like me]
would run screaming after eating them

my procedure was to gut the peppers
stuff them with cream cheese
dip them in egg
roll them in bread crumbs
and deep fry them

I suspect that in order to cool them off
I need to cook the jalapenos some before
stuffing and frying them

I will have to research it

but if you like stuff
wicked spicy
I highly recommend making some of your own
it only took me about 15 minutes
to make a plate of eight of them
[all the peppers I had on hand]

and with that
I wish you all
pleasant and wonderful dreams

for this king

is off to sleep

Jalepenos can vary in heat level, but it's quite likely that you used some other pepper such as Serano.

mmm I like hot stuff... I might just give it a go :) Do you have to use cream cheese? or can you use a variety of mixed cheese?

I've always seen them with cream cheese
although I suppose
you could use anything you like

You have to scoop out the white parts before filling. Not just the seeds, but that white stuff that holds the seeds, so that the peppers are just all green (or all red).

I love homemade poppers!

I did get all the zest and the seeds
just left the outer shell
