Named for the city of Cayenne in French Guiana, it is a cultivar of Capsicum Annuum related to bell peppers, jalapenos, and others. The Capsicum genus is in the nightshade family (Solanaceae).The fruits are generally dried and ground, or pulped and baked into cakes, which are then ground and sifted to make the powdered spice of the same name. Cayenne is used in cooking spicy dishes, as a powder or in its whole form (such as in Sichuan cuisine) or in a thin, vinegar-based sauce. It is generally rated at 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Units. This variety is the thicker walled more stubby cayenne pepper.
