Product Description

HOT PEPPERS: When Wilbur Scoville first devised a means to test the heat of peppers, his hottest entry then came in at 20,000 units. Habanero and Thai chilies can go as high as 60,000. Compare that to the sweet bell pepper at zero. When hot peppers are consumed, capsaicinoids bind with pain receptors in the mouth and throat that are responsible for sensing heat. Once activated by the capsaicinoids, these receptors send a message to the brain that the person has consumed something hot. The brain responds to the burning sensation by raising the heart rate, increasing perspiration and release of endorphins. Hot peppers should be eaten with caution! Peruvian White Lightning Habanero Pepper: The White Habanero is a brand new, lovely variety of the Habanero that is hard to come by and said to originate in Peru. Small bushy pepper plants produce very high yields of fiery hot chile peppers of a lantern shape with a creamy-white colored skin. The beautiful chiles are approximately 2 inches long by 3/4 of an inch in diamater. These beautiful, rare white chiles are extremely hot and have been rated at over 300,000 Scoville Units which is about ten times hotter than a standard Jalapeno Pepper. Can be used fresh, but makes wonderful, fiery dried chile powder or ultra hot white hot sauce! White Habaneros are ideal for growing in containers and due to their beauty are also a wonderful ornamental chile for use in edible landscapes! Matures in 85 to 90 days. Rare.
