Chilli peppers

Chilli peppers have probably been eaten for almost 1,000 years, and they were first brought to Europe in 1494 on explorer Christopher Columbus’s ship. Portuguese traders then took chilli peppers to

Asia, where they (1 – d) continue to be an important ingredient in Indian food. They are used to make many (2 – b) dishes in South East Asia, too.

Today, chillies are produced in large quantities all over the world. As well as (3 – a) adding flavour and heat to meals, they (4 – c) contain healthy vitamins that are important for our diet.
