AWESOME RED CHILLY - TOMATO CHUTNEY
SPICY CHUTNEY WITH RAW RED CHILLIES AND TOMATOES |
 |
|
Chillies ( Chilly peppers ) are native to America and have been introduced to the rest of the world by Columbus. It is also believed that the Portuguese brought peppers from Spain to India and cultivated them there. It appears that the Spanish colony of Mexico which controlled trade has spread chillies to countries like India, China, Japan, Korea and Indonesia. The substance that gave the peppers their intensity is a chemical called Capsaicin which bind with pain receptors in the mouth and these pain receptors send message to the brain that some thing hot has been consumed. The pepper berries are in use world wide in a variety of hot culinary items, either in raw state or dried. Chillies are used in pickles and some times the chillies themselves are pickled. Capsaicin is a safe and efficient topical analgesic agent in the management of arthritis pain, herpes zoster-related pain, diabetic neuropathy, postmastectomy pain and headaches. Red chillies contain high amounts of vitamin-C and carotene. Red chillies are a good source of vitamin-A and B, potassium, magnesium and iron. The plant has no relation to the country Chile (which means - where the land ends).
