Product Details

Originally from South America, the cayenne plant is now used worldwide as a food and spice. Cayenne is very closely related to bell peppers, jalapeņos, paprika, and other similar peppers. The fruit is used medicinally as it is thought to have antiseptic and pain relieving properties

Serving Suggestion

Cayenne has an affinity with sea food so it's great in paella. Also good with cheese, eggs, sauces and quiches.

Usage

You can use cayenne pepper both in cooking as a warm spice, and medicinally. for example try this remedy for soar throats: Stir 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper in half a cup of lukewarm water. Gargle small amounts at a time for as long as possible without swallowing any.

Ingredients

Just Cayenne pepper (capsicum annuum, capsicum frutescens) and nothing else.

Vegetarian
