Study finds compounds that can suppress chili heat, challenging the accuracy of the Scoville scale.
A new study challenges the reliability of the Scoville scale, used to measure chili pepper heat, by identifying compounds that can suppress spiciness.
Researchers found that certain compounds, such as capsianoside I, reduce perceived heat, suggesting the scale doesn't fully account for all heat-related compounds.
This discovery could lead to the development of "anti-spice" condiments and new methods to measure chili pepper heat more accurately.
