About Small hot red pepper
Small hot red peppers, often known as chili peppers, are vibrant additions to various cuisines, originating primarily from Central and South America before spreading worldwide. Packed with flavor and heat, they are rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as potassium and fiber. Their distinct spiciness comes from capsaicin, a compound known to boost metabolism, reduce inflammation, and support pain relief. Chili peppers are commonly used in dishes like salsas, curries, stir-fries, and marinades, adding boldness and complexity while requiring only small amounts. Despite their health benefits, they can irritate sensitive stomachs or skin, and excessive consumption may exacerbate acid reflux. Available fresh or dried, they play a key role in cuisines including Mexican, Thai, Indian, and Sichuan. When used in moderation, small hot red peppers are a fiery yet nutritious ingredient to enhance your meals.
