Proper pepper selection, care and preparation can help you turn down the heat as needed.
Hot peppers’ spicy heat is measured in Scoville Heat Units named for Wilbur Scoville. The level of heat was originally determined by a panel of individual tasters. Chili peppers were ground and added to a sugar-water solution. The solution was continually diluted until the panelist found the solution no longer burned their mouth. Each pepper was assigned a number based on the amount of sugar-water solution needed to reach that point.
Peppers grow and produce best when day temperatures are 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit and night temperatures are 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold, heat and drought are the most common cause of blossom drop, misshapen fruit, and a poor harvest. Turn down the heat, if needed or desired, when preparing your favorite recipes. Since most of the capsaicin, which gives hot peppers their heat, is in the white membrane that houses the seeds, just remove this and the seeds if you want the flavor with less heat.
