The piri-piri or peri-peri chili from Uganda comes from the Capsicum frutescens plant. It is cultivated in Uganda in Central Africa and is similar to the bird's eye chili from Thailand. Its flavor and heat can reach up to 120,000 Scoville heat units, while regular paprika has about 10,000 units.
In Indonesian and Vietnamese cuisine, chilies are used in soups, salads, and fried dishes, as well as in sauces, pastes, and marinades. In Thai cuisine, they are valued for their fruity and spicy flavor. The African bird's eye chili is thin and has a smoky base with a fruity and long-lasting burn.
The African Bird's Eye Chili, with a heat level of 150,000 - 175,000 Scoville units, should be used with caution in cooking, especially if you do not have a high tolerance for spicy foods.
