Chilli Tasting!

 Welcome back to another post!

So today I am going to be tasting chilli, I hope I can handle it but.. Before we can do that we are going to research about them!

Chilli means like a plant that's hot.

The chemical that is in the plant is Capsaicin

Guajillo plant

Red Cayenne Pepper

Habanero

6. Naga Viper - England

5. Trinidad Scorpion “Butch T” - Texas, Arizona, Florida and all hot areas

4. 7 Pot Primo - Louisiana

3. 7 Pot Douglah - Caribbean Islands

2. Trinidad Moruga Scorpion - Texas, Arizona, Florida and all hot areas

1. Carolina Reaper - South Carolina

Scoville Chilli Scale scales the spiciness and heat.

Scoville Chilli Scale uses the concentration of the capsaicinoids to check how spicy/hot it is.

Aim: To see which is the best way to cool down the hot chilli taste in your mouth when eating chilli. Hypothesis: I think that by using milk I will be able to remove the hot chilli taste from my mouth. Equipment: Milk Water Coca Cola Tasting cup Chilli. Method: You will work in groups of three for this experiment. Each person in the group will use one of the drinks with the chilli. You will then swap results in your group so that everyone has the same results. Each member of the group needs to have their own tasting cup. This will be used for putting the different liquids in as we cool off the chilli in our mouths. Place a piece of chilli in your mouth. After 10 seconds you will drink the liquid that you have in your cup. As you do this you will complete a results chart. You will be recording the following using Yes or No The effectiveness of the liquid immediately. The effectiveness of the liquid after 10 seconds.

Chilli Tasting Results

Record : Yes or No

	Immediately	After 5 minutes
Milk	It didn't take away the taste.	It still didn't take away the spiciness.
Water	Only had a small effect on the chilli.	It had a bit bigger effect but I still taste it
Coca Cola	It only had a small effect but there was still more of the taste.	It had a huge effect on the sauce.

Coca-Cola was the most effective based on my recording when tasting Carolina Reaper sauce but it's the third of the spiciness not the whole thing.
