pepper - Chili pepper - Chilli pepper . Dried chilies can be used whole in





curries and almost any other kind of slow-cooked liquid, as the flavour seeps





out and flavours the food. A variety of ground chiles are available to be used





in a wide range of curries, sauces, pickles, chutneys and pastes. Medicinal





Properties: Aside from their eye-opening flavour, perhaps the most surprising





feature of chile peppers is their vitamin C content: 91 milligrams in 1/4 cup





of fresh chilies. Though we don't eat chili peppers in large quantities, the





amount of vitamin C is still significant. Red chiles are full of beta-





carotene. The nutritional aspect of hot peppers most interesting to





researchers today, however, is capsaicin, the compound that gives chiles their





"burn." Capsaicin seems to have a positive effect on blood cholesterol, and





also works as an anticoagulant. And the "high" that some people experience





when eating fiery chile-spiked foods is a perfectly safe one: Some scientists





theorize that in response to the discomfort produced by the chiles' "burn,"





the brain releases endorphins, substances that, at high levels, can create a





sensation of pleasure.
