Description :

Long green chilies are vibrant, slender peppers that range from mild to moderately spicy. Known for their crisp texture, they add a fresh, zesty flavour to dishes. Often used in stir-fries, curries, or pickles, they enhance meals with their tangy heat. Their bright colour and versatile flavour make them a staple in many cuisines.

Scoville Heat Rating For Long Green Chilli :

The heat rating for long green chilies typically ranges from 1,000 to 3,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). This places them in the mild to medium heat range, depending on the specific variety. The heat can vary, but generally, they offer a zesty kick without being overwhelmingly hot, making them a versatile addition to many dishes.

Heath Benefits For Eating Long Green Chilli :

Long green chilies are rich in vitamins A and C, which boost immune function and promote healthy skin. They contain capsaicin, which may aid in metabolism and weight management. Additionally, they are a good source of antioxidants, which help combat inflammation and protect the body from oxidative stress.

Preparing Your Long Green Chilli :

To prepare long green chilies, wash them thoroughly under cold water. Trim off the stems and slice them as desired—lengthwise for more intense heat or into rings for milder heat. Remove the seeds if you prefer less heat. They can be sautéed, grilled, or added fresh to dishes for extra flavour.
