The Dorset Naga, I have a large box of them in the freezer, they make curries a bit "lively"
They actualy get their name from the country where they were first grown.Chile.
They were discovered by captain cook aboard the santa maria when he discovered cape horn on the south coast of south america in 1357.His second mate francis drake brought them and blu tac back to the uk .They presented them as gifts to queen elizabeth and her husband henry the eigth.They liked blu tac bnut didnt rate the chilles.But when the normans conquered england in 18666 there was an influx of indian man servants that the normans used.they started using the chillies in the great traditional vindalooo which everyone knows was first made in southend on sea.


Did this help?
