Thanks for the answer, Michael. They look the same, except for the size and heat.

Grub, I like PP for its looks and sometimes for cooking. It's fiery hot (for my taste buds) so I'm careful when I use it. One pod normally takes care of enough heat for me in one dish. But I'm not as seasoned a chilihead as plenty others around here. I just love to grow them all and use them sparingly in heaps of recipes.

I put one pod into a small jar of pickled cucumbers last season, and it gave the cucumber slices a really nice heat kick. Wouldn't have wanted more than that. The chilli was nice to eat, too, after I took the seeds out. I can be a bit of a wuss at times.
