Notes
F you are a "chile novice" I recommend adding about half of the habanero.
The heat level will increase as the dressing sits so if you are making the dressing ahead, you may wish to wait to taste it just before serving - if you'd like it hotter, just mince a bit more Habanero and stir it into the dressing.
