Guest guest Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Cayenne pepper as a spice isn't very hot anyhow. The definition of Cayenne means any hot pepper. Here is an example of the heat of hot peppers- a Jalapeno is 90,000 heat units were a Habenaro is 350,000 heat units Kopera Irina wrote: What's the shelf life of the powdered pepper they sell as spice? I have a few small bottles, but they are oh, more than a year old? Does is go bad? Loses it's potency? TIA!
