organic cayenne
plant overview
cayenne makes a spicy bite
Cayenne, also known as African pepper and bird pepper, is the dried
fruit of a type of red pepper plant original to Zanzibar now
cultivated in other temperate zones throughout the world. The member
of the nightshade family gets its genus name, Capsicum, from the
Greek word that means “to bite,” while the common name is borrowed
from the capital city of French Guiana. Although the powdered herb
is most commonly used as seasoning, it is also incorporated into
topical salves.
