Oh, that first taste got me a bit; made me say,"Whew."   But it got better 
and better.  I really like horseradish.  I have tubes and tubes of wasabi 
laying in the refrigerator. I'd just never considered adding chile to 
it.  Now I will.

Actually, my past stupid-eating-peppers phase of life has kind of jaded 
me:  A friend just brought me 3 ounces of fine-dust "picante" green 
chile-powder from New Mexico.  It is really good in slaw. But it ain't real 
hot.

Now a teaspoon of the old Ralph's Revenge, or another one of Father Jim's 
Habenero pulp, now that is *hot.*
