If you like spice, you’re probably familiar with the Cayenne pepper. It is said to originate from Cayenne, French Guiana. It is commonly sold dried or ground into a fine powder. It can also be used fresh in many recipes. Cayenne Pepper grows around the world in places such as India, East Africa, Mexico, in the Caribbean and certain areas of the United States. In Haiti, Cayenne Pepper is called “Piman chen” (dog’s pepper) or “Piman Zwazo” (bird’s pepper). In addition to being delicious, it adds a touch of heat to your food and provides some remarkable health benefits.
