BLACK PEPPER

Like with most spices, you'll come across several varieties of hot paprika. They differ in heat levels and coarseness. From mild to extra-hot and coarse to fine powder, you will surely find a variety that will work best for your recipe.

Answer: No, chili powder and ground chili pepper are not the same. Ground chili pepper is made by grinding dried chili peppers into a powder form without any additional spices or ingredients. It offers the pure, concentrated flavor and heat of the specific type of chili pepper used. Chili powder, on the other hand, is a blend of ground chili pepper and other spices.

Not surprisingly, capsaicin can be found in the fruit of capsicums. Capsicum is the genus of plants producing the fruits we call ‘peppers’. The term Capsicum is derived from the Greek κάπτω (kapto), meaning “to gulp.” This morphed into Latin capsa, meaning ‘case’, referring to the fact that peppers hold seeds.
