Use cayenne to impart heat and color in your dishes. At 40,000 Scovilles, this cayenne is a medium heat, spicy but not eye watering. Use in your curries, chili, and marinades. Cayenne pairs well with acidity; try with lime juice and lime zest for grilling or add to salt for a margarita. Add with brown sugar or maple syrup for a glaze for bacon. Season popcorn alongside turmeric.
