Bahamian Chili Peppers

by Mike Hultquist · Oct 7, 2013 · Leave a Comment

SCOVILLE HEAT UNITS: 95,000-110,000 SHU

As its name suggests, the Bahamian pepper originates from the Bahamas, where it is still one of the major agricultural crops. This small, round pepper grows to only about an inch in length, and may be found in an assortment of colors, including yellow, orange, green and red. Interestingly, the Bahamian pepper grows upright in clusters, unlike most peppers that hang from their stems.

Red and green chili peppers

At roughly 100,000 Scovilles, they are hotter than the cayenne, but not quite as hot as most habaneros. They make a deliciously spicy addition to many foods and dishes.
