Purple mild

When cutting down the harvested chilli plants in order to empty the pots I found the inevitable few extras that I had missed. I bit into the end of one of the purple (and hence unripe) dark-leaf chillies, at first gingerly, after my previous experience, and then more and more firmly, until I ended up simply chewing the piece I had bitten off. It really was not hot at all, but interestingly it did somehow taste sort of chilli-ish without any fire to it...

However I put the remainder of this chilli, seeds and all, plus an unripe green (and hence Demon Red!) chilli into the Cauliflower à la Polonaise that I made this evening, and there was definitely a detectable heat in that!
