smart idea!: "Put a little in a side bowl and add salt/pepper whatever, then taste the side bowl and your big bowl, which is better. If I over season the small bowl,"

... then, if the small bowl is "about right" for you, you can dump the small bowl back into the large, and it should dilute enough to "about right" for everyone else. <g>

I do a similar relative test with my Habanero cheesecake batter. I dab a small bit with my left hand little finger, and if I notice at least a tiny, little chile effect with it, then it means it's a good enough heat for everyone else.

I once made the mistake of using "my personal" recommended dose of Habanero rather than a recommended dose for "regular" people ... meaning, about 3 Habs instead of 1. Then presented the cheesecake to my Mom for Mother's Day. It's a darn lucky thing that moms can be specially forgiving of their son, when he unintentionally sears off half her tongue with an organic blowtorch.
