The chili pepper (or locally known as the chili pepper or the Karen chili pepper) is a small chili pepper that is commonly found in hot and humid regions such as the northern and western regions of Thailand. It is very spicy and is often used in many traditional Thai dishes such as Kaeng Som, Kaeng Phed, and Tom Yum.

 

The distinctive feature of the chili pepper is that it is smaller and sometimes has a long and shaped like a pine tree tip (hence the name "Chili pepper"). It has a very hot and spicy flavor, so it should be used with caution in cooking.

 

In addition to its spicy flavor, the chili pepper also has health benefits such as helping to stimulate blood circulation and help burn fat. However, it may irritate some people who are allergic or have an intestinal problem.
