Black chilli peppers are a sight to see! Starting off as purple flowers then turning into dark black fruits that ripen to a Burt blood red and grow upon a deep green sturdy plant will catch the eye of any passer by. These peppers are not that hot on the Scoville scale, but do pack a bit of a spicy punch which unlike many other hot chiles comes from the chemical compound pipeline rather than the capsicum responsible for burning any part of your body after touching peppers with capsicum. If you enjoy some heat to your food but don’t want to burn your head off, these might be the peppers for you..
