The skin is waxy, glossy, and smooth, ripening from green to bright orange when mature. Underneath the surface, the flesh is thin, crisp, and pale orange to yellow, encasing a central cavity filled with round and flat, cream-colored seeds. Orange habanero chile peppers have a sweet, fruity flavor with intense and pungent heat.
Seasons/Availability
Orange habanero chile peppers are available year-round, with a peak season in the summer through fall.
Current Facts
Orange habanero chile peppers, botanically classified as Capsicum chinense, are a well-known hot pepper that belongs to the Solanaceae or nightshade family. The name habanero translates to mean āfrom Habana,ā which is another name for the Cuban city of Havana that was a major location for pepper trading. Considered to be one of the most common colors of habanero peppers, Orange habaneros range 150,000 to 350,000 SHU on the Scoville scale and are favored for their intense heat and fruity flavor. Orange habanero chile peppers are commercially cultivated around the world and are primarily used to flavor hot sauces, marinades, and salsas.
Nutritional Value
Orange habaneros are an excellent source of vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that can help build collagen and protect the immune system, and also contains calcium, potassium, folic acid, and vitamins A and E. In addition to vitamins and minerals, Orange habaneros contain capsaicin, which is a chemical compound that triggers the brain to feel spice or heat and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties.
Applications
Orange habanero chile peppers are best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as roasting, grilling, simmering, and sautƩing. The peppers can be chopped into salsas, hot sauces, marinades, and chutneys, or they can be used whole to flavor soups, stews, and curries. Orange habanero chile peppers can also be cooked into jelly, stuffed with cheeses, battered, and fried, or roasted to enhance their fruity flavor. In addition to cooked applications, Orange habanero chile peppers can be pickled for extended use, ground into a powder, or infused into alcohols such as tequila or vodka. It is important to note that gloves and goggles should be worn when handling and slicing the pepper as the capsaicin can profoundly irritate the skin and eyes. Orange habanero chile peppers pair well with fruits such as mango, peaches, and apricots, limes, avocados, tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, allspice, fish, and grilled meats. The fresh peppers will keep 1-2 weeks when loosely stored whole and unwashed in a plastic bag in the refrigerator.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
Habanero chile peppers were introduced to Japan in the 20th century, exported from the Yucatan peninsula, and quickly became a favorite spice used in culinary dishes. Despite their pungent reputation in the culinary scene, the peppers are also being recognized and as a natural repellent for rodents. In Japan, Habanero chile peppers are dried, ground into a powder, and mixed with a plastic resin to coat fiberoptic cables. This protective coating is used to deter rodents from chewing through the lines and has become a more cost-effective method than creating thicker cables. The pepper-spiced cable coverings are considered a great success in Japan and are being tested for use in the United States and Mexico.
Geography/History
Habanero chile peppers are descendants of peppers native to the rainforests of South America that were discovered over eight thousand years ago. These ancient peppers were transported into Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean via immigrating tribes and peoples, and as pepper cultivation increased, many new varieties were developed from the native peppers. Habanero chile peppers were believed to have been developed in the Yucatan peninsula in Mexico and were spread across the world via Spanish and Portuguese traders in the 18th century. Today Orange habanero chile peppers are cultivated commercially in Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, the Caribbean. The seeds are also available through online catalogs for home garden use and may be grown on a smaller scale in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
