Historia y cultura

The pepper likely emerged from Capsicum chinense varieties brought to Suriname during Dutch colonial times. Its name may honor a local woman famed for fiery cooking. Surinamese diaspora carried seeds to the Netherlands, where greenhouses now cultivate Madame Jeanette for international markets. It remains central to Surinamese and Antillean cuisine across Europe.
