Product Details
Product Details
Cayenne pepper is a very fine powder made from especially hot varieties of capsicum peppers. It is named on account of its origins in the Cayenne region of French Guyana. The placenta and seeds are included in the powder, adding to its ‘hotness’, so it should be used judiciously.
Native range
Central America, South America, Caribbean Islands
Taste and aroma
The aroma of cayenne is intensely pungent. The flavour is tart, slightly smoky, pungent, and very hot.
Culinary uses
Cayenne is widely used as a seasoning (in tiny amounts), in savoury biscuits, and cheese and egg dishes. It is commonly used in ethnic dishes such as Mexican chilli, Chinese hot and sour soup, and Indian curries. The main point to remember about cayenne is that it is very hot, so follow the recipe carefully. You can always add more, but you cannot take it out!
Storage
It should be kept in an airtight container away from light.
