Pepper (Science)

Kia Ora people, 

So today we are learning about pepper and we are gonna research about pepper.

A small hot-tasting pod of a variety of capsicum, used in sauces, relishes, and spice powders. There are various forms with pods of differing size, colour, and strength of flavour.

    Dragons breath pepper

 Ghost pepper 

 Carolina Reaper 

Here is a photo of peppers and the hottest pepper in the world is a Carolina Reaper but i think that is wrong because it said Dragons breath pepper is hotter than Carolina Reaper.

Also apparently if you eat a pepper and rub your eye you might go blind.

Top 6 hottest pepper:

• Carolina Reaper (From South Carolina)
• Trinidad Moruga (From Trinidad and Trobago)
• 7 Pot Douglah (From Trinidad)
• 7 Pot Primo (From Louisiana)
• Trinidad Scorpion (From Trinidad and Trobago)
• Naga Viper (From England)
• Ghost Pepper (From Northeast India)

To see which is the best to cool down the hot chillie taste in your mouth when eating chilli. I think that by using milk sour cram and other dairy products I will be able to remove the hot chilli taste from my mouth.

Equipment: 

1. Milk 

2. Water

3. Coca Cola 

4. Tasting cup

5. Chilli

Summary and Resaults:

Milk had a small effect on the chilli. After 3 minutes it took the whole taste away. 

Coke had a small effect on the chilli. Coke worked well after 3 minutes and removed the taste totally.

Water did not remove the chilli taste at all. After 3 minutes it removed the taste slightly.

MIlk would be the most effective drink to use with spicy, chilli foods.

 Conclusion

And milk could be a solution when eating spicy foods - literally. That's because milks helps your mouth handle capsaicin, and oily chemical compound in chilli peppers. Capsaicin blinds to a receptor in the tongue and creates a burning sensation. ...Casein protein found in milk can also bind to the capsaicin and wash it away.

Thank you for reading/looking at ,my blog and have a lovely day.
