Google dedica su doodle al qu\u00edmico estadounidense que desarroll\u00f3 una escala para medir el picor de los picantes.<\/p>\n

\"escala<\/a><\/p>\n

El m\u00e9todo que Wilbur Scoville ide\u00f3 consiste en diluir los pimientos en agua con az\u00facar, cuanto m\u00e1s diluci\u00f3n necesiten hasta que dejen de picar, mayor ser\u00e1 su picor.<\/p>\n

Hoy en su 151 aniversario el buscador de internet le dedica un sencillo pero divertido juego en que hay que lanzar bolas de helados a los pimientos, cuanto m\u00e1s picantes sean m\u00e1s bolas de helado necesitar\u00e1s lanzarles.<\/p>\n

Wilbur cre\u00f3 su famosa escala en el a\u00f1o 1912, cuando trabajaba para la farmac\u00e9utica Parke-Davis. La escala Scoville<\/strong> se mide en SHU (Scoville Heat Units) e indican la cantidad presente de capsaicina, el componente qu\u00edmico que tiene los pimientos que provocan que estos frutos piquen.<\/p>\n

Entre los pimientos m\u00e1s picantes<\/strong> del mundo se encuentra el Pimiento Bhut Jolokia, Naga Jolokia, Carolina Reaper y Trinidad Scorpion Butch T, por la parte baja de la tabla, lo pimientos menos picantes<\/strong> son el pimiento morr\u00f3n (nada picante), el chile poblano o los jalape\u00f1os.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
