Scotch Bonnet (AtaRodo)

Scotch Bonnet peppers are a popular type of chili pepper that is widely used in Caribbean, West African, and Central and South American cuisines. These peppers are known for their intense heat, with a Scoville rating of 100,000 to 350,000, making them one of the hottest peppers in the world.

However, despite their heat, Scotch Bonnet peppers also have a sweet and fruity flavor, with hints of tropical fruit and a slightly floral aroma. They are often used to add both heat and flavor to sauces, marinades, and seasoning blends, as well as in soups, stews, and curries.

Aside from their culinary uses, Scotch Bonnet peppers are also believed to offer several health benefits. They are rich in vitamins A and C, which are essential for maintaining healthy skin, vision, and immune function. Additionally, they contain capsaicin, a compound that may possess anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties.
