Sorry, my recipe says 1T jalepeno finely chopped added to the cream.

When I first tried these potatoes at Blue Bayou 10+ years ago I asked for the recipe. At that time I remember the potatoes leaving a tingle on my lips. I asked the chef about them and he said there wasn't a lot added and most people don't notice. I have since taken it out of my recipe, which is why I probably unconsciously left it out. The last few times we went though I did not taste the jalepeno in theirs anymore either.

I frequently add more cream and of course extra cheese. They are marvelous reheated with a little prime rib thrown in or bacon of course!
