A Little About Chilli’s Peppers

Chilli peppers originally come from the Americas. They were thought to have been first discovered by Christopher Columbus and he was one of the very first Europeans to taste them on one of his many trips to the Caribbean. They were named peppers because their spicy hot taste resembled that of the pepper.

The heat of chilli peppers is measured by something called the Scoville Scale (SHU); this indicates the amount of the chemical capsaicin present in the Chilli pepper. Capsaicin is a chemical compound that stimulates nerve endings in the skin, especially in the mouth and eyes. Some of the hottest chilli in the world can measures 2 million units!
