When it comes to chili peppers, I believe many of my friends have their own favorite chili peppers. Personally, I really love and hate chili peppers. Because I love the heat, I don’t dare to eat more. But without the chili peppers, I feel like my food is lacking.
I ordered something, and every time I ate, I had to decide whether to have it mildly spicy or medium spicy.
Today I will take a look at the chili peppers from all over the country.
Where are the pepper producing areas in my country?
Chili peppers are grown in a large area in our country. Chili peppers are grown in almost every region. However, the area of ??chili pepper varieties grown in each region will be different.
At present, the main pepper growing areas in my country include Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong and other regions.
Among the more famous ones are the above-mentioned areas.
Where has the best chili?
This question is actually not easy to answer, because the varieties of peppers grown in each region are different, and people in each region have different standards for peppers, so everyone has the best pepper in their mind.
Here we can take a look at the more representative varieties of peppers.
Millet pepper: Millet pepper is grown in many places, but the most cultivated areas are Yunnan and Hunan. The most outstanding feature of millet pepper is its spiciness, which is very suitable for cold salad.
Chaotian pepper: Chaotian pepper, as the name suggests, means that when growing, the peppers grow upward. Chaotian pepper is characterized by thin skin, many seeds, and high spiciness. It is mainly grown in Henan and other regions.
Horn pepper: This kind of pepper is not very spicy and is relatively large. It is often used as a vegetable. The tiger skin green peppers we often eat are mostly made from this kind of horn pepper.
Erjingtiao: Erjingtiao is an indispensable condiment in Sichuan cuisine. The main characteristics of Erjingtiao pepper are its rich aroma, thin skin and thick flesh, and few seeds.
We often use Pixian bean paste and Fuling pickled mustard and often use this kind of pepper.
Beauty pepper: Beauty pepper is mainly eaten fresh. It has a lighter taste, not very spicy, has thin skin and thick flesh, and is very red in color.
In addition to the common pepper varieties mentioned above, there are also many pepper varieties with local specialties, such as Qiubei pepper, Henan New Generation, Chongqing Shizhuhong, screw pepper, warhead pepper, etc., which are all very good pepper varieties.
