Capsicum frutescens

ChiliCodexCDP.copy.heroTitle

Bird's Eye chilies pack fierce heat in tiny packages. These compact pods point upward on the plant like small flames. They taste fruity and bright before delivering a sharp, intense burn. Southeast Asian and African cuisines prize them for curries, sambals, and pepper sauces. The thin skin dries quickly, making them ideal for powders and infused oils. Citizens toss them whole into soups to perfume broth, or pound them with garlic and citrus for fiery pastes. At 50,000 to 175,000 SHU, they occupy Very Hot territory. Small size, large impact - certified by the Ministry of Concentrated Fire. ChiliCodexCDP.copy.rangeSentenceWithHeat Występuje w Southeast Asia and Africa w przyprawach, marynatach i zalewach.

They pair with lemongrass, ginger, coconut milk, and seafood. ChiliCodexCDP.navigation.seeSauceIndex

Historia i kultura

Bird's Eye peppers spread from the Americas to Asia and Africa via Portuguese traders in the 16th and 17th centuries. Farmers in Thailand, Vietnam, and East Africa selected for small, potent pods that birds could eat and disperse. The name references how birds consume the peppers without feeling capsaicin burn, spreading seeds widely. Today, multiple varieties exist across regions, including Thai prik kee noo and African piri piri, all sharing the characteristic small, fiery pods.

Botanika i uwagi dotyczące uprawy

Bird's Eye plants thrive in tropical heat and humidity. Start seeds indoors 10 weeks before transplanting, using heat mats near 28°C for germination. Transplant when nights stay above 18°C. Plants reach 40 to 60 cm tall and branch densely. Provide full sun, consistent moisture, and light feeding. Pods mature within 75 to 100 days and often point upward. In cooler climates, greenhouses or sunny windowsills extend the growing season.
