The traveller’s guide to Mexico makes it all clear!
“The Scoville scale measures their (chili peppers) hotness in heat units (SHUs). Cayenne, the chili Tabasco sauce is made from, ranks a respectable 3rd place behind the hottest chili known to man, the habanero. The green Bell pepper is a 0! See how your favorites stack up.”
Chili SHU
Habanero 100,000-350,000
Piquin 50,000-100,000
Cayenne 30,000-50,000
De Arbol 15,000-30,000
Chipotle 15,000
Serrano 5,000-15,000
Jalapeno 5000-10,000
Pasilla 1,000-2,000
Poblano 1,000-1,500
..just a correction, the hottest chilli according to the Guinness Book of World Records is ‘Bhut Jolokia’ with an SHU of over 1 Million. Habanero comes second;)
I visited multiple sites except the audio feature for audio songs present at this
site is truly marvelous.
