Our Master Gardener Laura Simpson has some spicy advice for you.
Each year, it seems as though our local garden centers are offering more varieties of chili peppers to choose from. How do you know what to buy? How can you use them or preserve them?
The heat level of a hot pepper is measured in Scoville Units . The mildest chilis usually have less than 1000 S.U. and the hottest can reach over a million S.U. This unit was invented by Wilbur Scoville over 100 years ago. It’s based on how much a small amount of ground-up chili had to be diluted in sugar water for the heat to become undetectable. Of course, this method is highly subjective, since it depends on an individual’s sensitivity to capsaicin.
Speaking of regret, if your mouth is on fire from eating a pepper above your tolerance level, a teaspoon or two of honey will calm the heat considerably.
