I like the ferments, mild though, this is habenaro and onion with larger solids and filtered out. Habenaros were seed and the pith taken out for this ferment so it's still only on the hot side of mild.

I find you need something acidic with spicy food. Lemon , lime or vinegar really unlock the spice and flavour. Try tom yum or larb pork. My two favourite Thai dishes.
I regularly do my own fermented hot sauces from homegrown Chili. I live for that fermented acidic chili flavour.
I love combining the acidic with the spicy, but I definitely don't think it's a necessity. Some indian and thai curries integrate a vinegar or lemon/lime juice, but others do just fine without it. Lots of hot sauces I seek out because they are less acidic, though other ones I specificially enjoy for their acidic side. I recently bought some "Crystal" hot sauce at the dollar store that tastes like basically vinegar mixed with some cayenne... I fucking love it and douse a whole lot of stuff in it.
That said, a properly made Tom Yum is like heaven in a bowl for me. As I said earlier I absolutely love pickled chilis, ferments can be even better.
Then you can add in the seemingly endless options of roasted or dried or smoked and powders vs flakes vs fresh sliced vs whole vs mashed vs crushed... there's just so many different levels and depths of flavors and textures you can create from a single pepper... I love it all

Hereās the chiles I grow every year to put in just about everything. Carolina Reapers. My favorite chiles are jalapeƱos, although they definitely donāt qualify as spicy or hot. I love them best as chiles toreados and grow them too since I can only find green jalapeƱos where I live. I have no idea why they donāt let them fully ripen to red.

I love spicy foods. I'm currently growing super hot chiles in the garden. The giant chocolate bhutla looked intense the last time I grew them, and I'm hoping the seeds I saved look the same. Can't wait to dry and powder all the peppers this year

Lol and the inside is just as diabolical 

I really love ghost peppers for how prolific they can be compared to some superhots. Hundreds of fruits possible with a big enough plant and a good growing season.
Heres also some bonus lemon starrburst that have a really great shape and scotch bonnet heat

Making some vinegar hot sauces, usually i puree an old lactic acid ferments and add some ground hot pepper and vinegar, but I was filtering some homemade vinegar and it was taking too long to separate the dregs. Pawpaw vinegar sludge with added ground hot pepper and ground spices. White vinegar and salt with Ari Charspita.
