Chili Pepper News

We’re constantly raving about all the good things capsaicin does for the body. And, it’s true; capsaicin does a lot of good. It’s been known to relieve severe headaches and cause cancer cells to commit suicide (without harming the neighboring healthy cells). Research shows that capsaicin might just stop a heart attack in its tracks and may even prevent some types of cancers from developing.

It’s that time of the year. Your chili pepper plants are probably ready for harvest. If your chili peppers live indoors year-round, the timing might vary slightly, but this is generally when your peppers are ready for the plucking.

Let’s be honest. Even though there is a vast amount of incredible recipes and flavors in the United States, we haven’t really been known globally for our foods.

Asian foods are hardly new to the American market. Well, that is to say, that we’ve known about Chinese food for a long time, and Thai has been the darling of haute-cuisiners for the past decade. But, we’re learning a lot about Asian foods at the moment – in part because people (especially Millennials) are interested in hotter flavors and new taste sensations.
