D'Elidas
D’Elidas is the brand name for a hot sauce produced by Productos D’Elidas S.A in Panama. The D’Elidas original yellow hot sauce is made from the main ingredients "Aji Chombo" (Panamanian capsicum chinense), mustard and vinegar. History The recipe behind the D’Elidas original yellow hot sauce dates back to 1904 when it was created by a colony of antillean-Panamanians. For almost 100 years the recipe was inherited through generations until Elida Valdivieso came up with the idea of commercializing her version of the recipe. In April 2002, the D’Elidas hot sauce product and brand was acquired by a group of Panamanian entrepreneurs. From that point the company D’Elidas S.A. was formalized and the first exports from Panama to the United States started. Today, D'Elidas S.A. exports its products to the United States (New York, North Carolina, Florida, Missouri, Washington, and California), as well as to Canada, Costa Rica, El Salvador, India and most recently Swed ...

Hot Sauce
Hot sauce is a type of condiment, seasoning, or salsa made from chili peppers and other ingredients. Many commercial varieties of mass-produced hot sauce exist. History Humans have used chili peppers and other hot spices for thousands of years. Inhabitants of Mexico, Central America and South America had chili peppers more than 6,000 years ago. Within decades of contact with Spain and Portugal in the 16th century, the New World plant was carried across Europe and into Africa and Asia, and altered through selective breeding. One of the first commercially available bottled hot sauces in America appeared in 1807 in Massachusetts. Few of the early brands from the 1800s survived to this day, however. Tabasco sauce is the earliest recognizable brand in the United States hot sauce industry, appearing in 1868. As of 2010, it was the 13th best-selling seasoning in the United States preceded by Frank's RedHot Sauce in 12th place, which was the sauce first used to create buffalo wing ...

Scoville Scale
The Scoville scale is a measurement of the pungency (spiciness or "heat") of chili peppers, as recorded in Scoville heat units (SHU), based on the concentration of capsaicinoids, among which capsaicin is the predominant component. The scale is named after its creator, American pharmacist Wilbur Scoville, whose 1912 method is known as the Scoville organoleptic test. The Scoville organoleptic test is a subjective assessment derived from the capsaicinoid sensitivity by people experienced with eating hot chilis. An alternative method, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), can be used to analytically quantify the capsaicinoid content as an indicator of pungency. As of 2011, the subjective organoleptic test has been largely superseded by analytical methods such as HPLC. Scoville organoleptic test In the Scoville organoleptic test, an exact weight of dried pepper is dissolved in alcohol to extract the heat components (capsaicinoids), then diluted in a solution of sug ...
