The Birds Eye Pepper or (Capsicum Annum Glabriusculum) originated in Central America and is rated very hot, often seven or eight times hotter on the Scoville Scale than Jalapenos. The flavor is citrusy, smoky, and nutty if you can get past the hotness of them. Medicinally Bird Peppers are potentially anticarcinogenic, warming, carminative, digestive, and stimulating. Birdseye peppers make an excellent choice for greenhouse pepper growers or people growing peppers in the south or the Gulf States, as well as in the tropics.
