Botanically, both hot peppers and chillies belong to the Capsicum family of peppers. Both pods are related to each other, but differ in shape and taste. Chilies are small and very hot. Hot peppers, also known as hot peppers, are larger, more similar in shape to pointed peppers, and have a wider range of flavors.
Chilies serve as the basic substance for hot chili powder and for cayenne pepper. In addition, the different varieties sometimes have completely different flavors and are therefore used to refine dishes, like the jalapeño for our chilli con carne. Peppers, on the other hand, are usually used to produce paprika powder in various flavors and degrees of spiciness, from sweet to hot.
Chili and hot pepper are both good for flavoring dishes. However, the hot versions of the pods should only be used sparingly so that the food remains edible. When cutting, it is important to ensure that your hands do not come into contact with your eyes or mucous membranes: the pungent substance capsaicin contained in chillies and peppers can irritate them sensitively. Especially the white membranes contain a lot of capsaicin. Therefore, removing the membranes from the pods before cooking reduces the heat.
