The chili pepper (also chile pepper or chilli pepper, from Nahuatl chÃÂ«lli [ÃËtÃÂ¡ÃÆiÃÂlÃÂi]) is the fruit of plants from the genus Capsicum, members of the nightshade family, Solanaceae. In Britain, Australia, New Zealand, India,[ Malaysia and other Asian countries, the word pepper is usually omitted. The substances that give chili peppers their intensity when ingested or applied topically are capsaicin (8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) and several related chemicals, collectively called capsaicinoids. Chili peppers originated in the Americas. After the Columbian Exchange, many cultivars of chili pepper spread across the world, used in both food and medicine. Chilies were brought to Asia by Portuguese navigators during the 16th century. The lazzaretto variety is typically used in Italian Abruzzi traditional recipes.
