Thai chile
[ TI ]
Only about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long and 1/4 inch in diameter, this diminutive
CHILE packs a fiery punch that doesn't dissipate with cooking. The thin-fleshed Thai
CHILE ranges in color from green to red when fully ripe. It's a popular addition in many Southeast Asian dishes. See also
