Peruvian pepper (also known as Aji Charapita) is known as the most expensive spice in the world and is rarely grown in mass production, thus becoming more valuable and rare.
These agricultural products are sought after by high-end and wealthy restaurants in some parts of the world. In some countries, these chili peppers are sold to high-end restaurants for up to $25,000 (about VND 560 million) per kilogram. There are even times when the price of Aji Charapita chili reaches 35,000 USD (more than 800 million VND).
But it’s no coincidence that Peruvian chilies are very expensive, knowing their unique spicy taste has also fascinated 5-star hotel chefs, often used to prepare dishes. Needless to say, even in Vbiz, there are many artists who love this expensive chili.
The size of this chili originating from northern Peru is only the size of a pea. This chili can be eaten raw or mashed into a powder form to flavor dishes. When eaten raw, Aji Charapita peppers have a delicious, fresh fruit flavor that makes a salad or dip more flavorful.
Vietnamese stars such as Trinh Tu Trung, Ly Hai, Quoc Thuan, Anh Tai … all grow chili peppers at a price of more than half a billion dong/kg. Although it can grow on its own, eating it still feels very “different”.
Trinh Tu Trung
In memory of the New Year 2021, actor Trinh Tu Trung was given the world’s most expensive chili plant by a brother. After that, the actor replaces the soil with a mixture of various nutrients that are beneficial to the plant and waters it daily with the right amount of water.
Because it is grown separately from other plants in the yard, chili plants do not face pest problems. On tasting Peruvian chili, he shared: “The chili has a sharp taste, it is spicier than ordinary chili and the aftertaste is very deep even though the fruit is very small.”
With peppers ripening not in time to eat, he gives them to friends and relatives, and old fruits propagated in hopes of having new plants to bring back as gifts for everyone.
Mr Tai
Joining the group of Vietnamese stars who love half a billion VND/kg chili, actor Anh Tai is also excited to show fans his cultivation clip. Sharing about this variety of chili, Mr. Tai said: “There are rumors that this chili tree is worth billions of silver, 1 tree, eat 1 fruit go to the fairyland, drink thousands of glasses, not drunk, hundreds of battles, hundreds of victories, immortality forever! 500 million dong / 1 kg, eating is a bit painful, friend!”.
He bought more fertilizer to fertilize the plants. Since plants love water, the actor also does regular watering every day. “I put the plant in a place that is dewy and exposed to the sun so that the chili is more beautiful and not wrinkled. Although these chilies are small like ornamental chilies, their spiciness is ‘unparalleled’. I’m a good spicy eater, but when I tried it, it melted. tears,” he said.
Ly Hai
Director Ly Hai was also given Peruvian chilies by his friends and after enjoying them, he tried to cultivate them in the fields. The male director has planted about 14 chili seedlings.
Sharing with fans, the male singer said: “Lam Dong’s mild climate is suitable for growing various types of fruit trees. My wife and I decided to plant this chili and found that the tree adapts and grows well. I often joke that if successful, the whole family will become a “chili giant”.
It is worth mentioning, after only 3 months of cultivation, this male singer has harvested a large quantity of chili, which is not only enough for daily food but can also be given to close friends. When tasting the most expensive chili on the planet, Ly Hai said that although the chili is small, the smell is very fragrant, so it is difficult to resist even if you don’t like to eat chili, it is very spicy even though the fruit is small. .
Quoc Thuan
Actor Quoc Thuan’s friend knew he liked to eat chili, so he gave him the prized chili plant. When he learned the true value of the tree after reading the newspaper, actor Quoc Thuan was very surprised. Chili plants are currently planted on the terrace and placed in a cool place because these plants do not tolerate much sun and wilt easily.
“I always water the roots or mist the leaves, avoiding over-watering, causing root rot. Every day, I get about 10 ripe chilies, eating well without causing an upset stomach. Because chilies are ripe, during Tet, apart from sweets, I also give chilies to take home,” he said.
