Hi there!

    I saw that someone posted a recipe for Xnipec, as per
the Habanero Cookbook.  As luck would have it, I recently
ran across another Xnipec recipe in Jean Andrew's "Red Hot
Peppers," that I recently signed out of the library.
Anyway, if anyone's interested, here it is:



     YIELDS:  about 1 cup

     INGREDIENTS:
          1/4 cup chopped onion
          1/4 large ripe tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped
          1/4 cup Habanero, seeded and chopped
          1/4 cup Seville (bitter) orange juice
          Salt to taste

     SUBSTITUTE INGREDIENTS:
          (1)  If you don't have Habaneros, use comparable
C. chinese
               varieties, such as Fatalli, Congo, Datil or
Scotch Bonnets,
               depending on what you've got in your garden
(or what your
               grocer has on the shelves!)
          (2)  If you don't have Seville orange juice, try a
mixture
               of 1 part orange juice to 2 parts lime juice

     METHOD:
          In a bowl, combine all the ingredients, seasoning
with salt.

     NOTES:
          (1)  Serve whenever a chilli sauce is called for.
          (2)  Using 1/4 cup habs, this could be a bit
expensive if you
               don't grow your own!
          (3)  YUM-YUM!!


    Personally, I'd like to know if there's anyone out there
who can think of a good way of making this into a preserve,
like a relish or such.  Or something based on this recipe...
