Dry Bird Eye Chili

The bird’s eye chili plant is a perennial with small, tapering fruits, often two or three, at a node. The fruits are very pungent. The bird’s eye chili is small but is quite hot (piquant). It measures around 50,000 – 100,000 Scoville units, which is at the lower half of the range for the hotter habanero, but still much hotter than a common jalapeño.
