Description

The listing, HOT! Ukraine Heirloom Chile--10 Seeds has ended.

Chilli Pepper Ukrainsky Hirkyy (Capsicum)

Mid-season sort. Bush height 25 - 40 cm, long fruit, conical, curved, red color, weight 8 - 15 g pulp thin, very hot. Taste good, strong flavor. Variety has high content of vitamin C. Use as spices, fresh and dried form.
These were not touted as very hot in the sale paper, but I grew them last year, and found that they are scorching hot!....I was dumbfounded by the intensity of burn from just a small bite.
Chili peppers contain a substance called capsaicin, which gives peppers their characteristic pungence, producing mild to intense spice when eaten. Capsaicin is a potent inhibitor of substance P, a neuropeptide associated with inflammatory processes. The hotter the chili pepper, the more capsaicin it contains. The hottest varieties include habanero and Scotch bonnet peppers
