Chillies are the most widely cultivated species throughout the world. The pungency of the capsicum pods is due to a crystalline substance known as capsaicin. In the milder types of
C. annuum the capsaicin content is very low, but in the hotter varieties of C. frutescens the fruits may contain from o,2 to 1 % of this highly pungent ingredient, concentrated mainly in the thin tissues of the placental region where the seeds are attached to the spongy central portion.

Culinary Usage: The fruit is eaten cooked or raw for its fiery hot flavor. Well-known dishes with a strong chile flavor are Mexican salsas, Tex-Mex chile con carne, and Indian vindaloos and other curries. Chilli powder is a spice made of the dried ground chillies. Bottled hot sauces such as Tabasco sauce are made from Tabasco chillies, similar to cayenne, which may also be fermented.

Medicinal Properties: Red chillies are very rich in vitamin C and pro-vitamin A. Yellow and especially green chillies (which are essentially unripe fruit) contain a considerably lower amount of both substances. In addition, they are a good source of most B vitamins and vitamin B6 in particular. They are very high in potassium and high in magnesium and iron. Their high vitamin C content can also substantially increase the uptake of non-heme iron from other ingredients in a meal, such as beans and grains. Chillies are a vital source of vitamin C content i.e. 91 milligrams in 1/4 cup of fresh chillies. Though we don't eat chilli in large quantities, the amount of vitamin C is still significant. Red chillies are full of beta-carotene.
