Gregg's Crushed Chilli
Chillies are native to South America however are now cultivated
in many countries, from the Indian subcontinent to all over Asia.
There are five main species of chilli and hundreds of varieties.
Chillies come in a variety of shapes, colours and heat levels
(which is measured in Scoville units).
Chillies have become the 'must use' daily condiment in the diets
of many. The flavour and heat of chillies is associated with
Indian, African, Asian and Mexican cooking. In cooking, if using
oils and fats this will increase the heat of chillies. If you are
unsure of the heat of the chilli always use less as you can add
more later.
