West Park Bird's Eye (Piri Piri) Pepper

Capsicum frutescens

This Bird's Eye Chili, or Piri Piri Pepper, is a South African heirloom with intensely hot flavor. The small, slender fruits are about 1-in long and and ripen from green-purple to red earlier than other frutescens peppers. These plants are incredibly productive. Bird's Eye peppers were brought to Mozambique from South America by the Portuguese and are now popular across southern Africa, as well as Brazil, Portugal, India, Ethiopia, and Nigeria. The fruits are commonly dried and used to to make traditional piri piri sauce.
