The '''cayenne''', or '''Guinea pepper''' or '''bird pepper''' is a hot, [[red chili pepper]] used to flavour dishes. Named for the city of Cayenne in French Guiana, it is a cultivar of Capsicum annuum related to [[bell peppers]], [[jalapeños]], and others. The [[Capsicum]] genus is in the nightshade family (Solanaceae).

The fruits are generally [[dried]] and [[ground]], or pulped and baked into cakes, which are then ground and sifted to make the powdered spice known as '''cayenne pepper'''.

Cayenne is used in cooking spicy dishes, as a powder or in its whole form (such as in [[Sichuan cuisine]]) or in a thin, [[vinegar]]-based sauce. It is generally rated at 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Units. It is also used as a herbal supplement, and was mentioned by Nicholas Culpeper in his 17th century book Complete Herbal.
