Jalapeño

Jalapeño is a small, fiery fruit used across many cuisines — from Thai and West African to Italian and Portuguese — prized for its heat and bright flavor. It’s commonly used fresh, dried, crushed into flakes or made into hot sauces and pastes. Nutritionally, Jalapeño is low in calories but packs a lot of micronutrient value; for example it contains 143mg of vitamin C per 100g, and also provides vitamin B6 and copper while being very low in fat. The characteristic compound capsaicin gives it heat and contributes to its use both as a culinary spice and in research on metabolism and pain modulation. Overall this is a nutrient-dense, healthful ingredient — rich in vitamin C and other micronutrients — and it also supplies antioxidant carotenoids and polyphenolic compounds that can support cellular health.Read more
