🌶 the spiciness of chili peppers...How is it measured? 🤔🔥🔥
(A little long but delicious)
From the last article we got to know you, "Pepper X," a spicy chili that says, "Eat it and maybe see the light at the end of the tunnel."
Today we're going to delve into the background of this spiciness, the one who says it's so spicy, what a magic ruler he has to measure!
Well, the measure of chili spiciness does not take someone's personal feelings, but he uses the "Scoville Scale," a universal scale named after his grandfather who invented it.
This gauge tells us how much capsaicin there is in each chili pepper. This is the bad substance that allows us to pour tears and fire without the Dragon Ball! 🐉
All right, let's get the tear lining and see what it's like to measure spiciness!
🌶 into the "Temple of the Divinity!"
1.Traditional method (pioneer era of spiciness!): 👴🧪
Invented by Grandpa "Wilbur Scoville, the owner of the temple that we're talking about! Grandpa's way is to take the chili extract, dilute it with a syrup, and give" the brave foodie "(perhaps including Grandpa himself) to keep tasting it until it doesn't feel spicy. Oh, just thinking it's tongue-burning! 🥵 The more water it takes to dilute it until the spiciness disappears, the more spicy the chili peppers are!
That's not it...When I was a kid who secretly ate chili peppers, I quickly brought water to eat as a jar! I used an old-fashioned dilution! 😅
2.Current method (high-tech era subdue spiciness!): 🔬📊
For the 5G era, we need a more accurate and high-tech approach! He used a technique called "High Performance Liquid Chromatography."
It sounds as complicated as the name is! This method is to use a scientific tool to directly analyze the capsaicin content in chili peppers. Do not rely on the delicate taste buds of humans (and do not fear that the taster will pass out first!) 💀 the value of this HPLC will be converted into the Scoville unit that we are familiar with!
How is it? Science is really cool! It makes us no longer have to risk death with the measure of spiciness! (But if anyone wants to try, no matter what...Just keep the ambulance close!)
