Thin cayenne peppers are renowned for their slender, elongated shape, typically tapering to a point, and vibrant red color when mature, though they start green. Originating from Cayenne, French Guiana, these peppers have become globally popular for their heat, which ranges from 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Heat Units, making them a staple in spicy cuisines. Historically, the name "cayenne" has been linked to the Tupi word "kyynha" for capsicum, reflecting their long-standing use in South America before being spread worldwide by explorers. Today, they are not only valued for culinary heat but also for their rich content of vitamins A, C, and various antioxidants.
