The Carolina Reaper pepper is truly in a class of its own, boasting an impressive Scoville scale rating of 1,400,000 to 2,200,000 units. This makes it up to 880 times hotter than a jalapeno pepper, which only measures 5,000 units on the scale. Created by Ed Currie of Rock Hill, South Carolina in 2012, the Carolina Reaper is a small pod-shaped pepper that turns a vibrant red when mature. Although it’s commonly used in pepper sprays and hot sauces, the fruit itself and even puree and mash products can cause discomfort when consumed or in contact with skin. That being said, when blended into sauces, the Carolina Reaper can add a fiery kick to dishes such as chicken wings, meats, pasta, noodle dishes, chilies, stews, and soups. If you’re looking for a way to add some serious heat to your cooking, the Carolina Reaper pepper is definitely worth trying!

Carolina Reaper Pepper Specifications

It’s important to note that the Carolina Reaper Pepper Mash and Puree may contain sodium chloride, which is added by the farmer as a method of preserving the peppers after harvest. This is a common practice and helps to extend the shelf life of the product. If you’re watching your sodium intake, be sure to check the label and use the product in moderation. As with any food product, it’s always a good idea to read the label carefully and follow any instructions or warnings provided..
