Subject: [CH] Which is what?
I call upon you mighty guru's of the great fiefdom of Chile Pepper.
I see many names for peppers, but I'm sure these are some different names
for the same pepper. For example, I find Chilipin, Chiltecepin, Chilitepen,
Chilipeņo, Chilipiquin. Come on! Is Api Aji? What's a Bangalore Torpedo?
Are Cayenne Long Hots the same as Long Slims? Is the Paper Dragon the same
as the Thai Dragon? What's a NewMex 6-4L and what's the difference between
a NewMex Big Jim and Joe E. Parker? What's a Praetermissum No. 33? Is
there a 1,2,3, etc.?
Does anybody know of a source for a standardized listing for pepper names?
