樟树港辣椒，一款上过太空的湖南辣椒，到底有什么神奇之处？

Zhangshugang Pepper, is a variety of Hunan-produced chilli pepper that has been to the space. What’s the magic about it?

它香，它甜，它脆。樟树港的辣椒，前期微辣香甜，中期中辣香脆，后期辣而有香，味纯不涩，椒香浓烈。

It tastes fragrant, sweet, and crispy. The peppers from Zhangshugang are sweet when they grow mature in the early stage, crispy and a little spicy in the middle stage, and spicy and fragrant in the later stage. With a strong peppery aroma, they taste  pure but not astringent at all.

它是“辣椒中的爱马仕”，“辣椒界劳斯莱斯”。养育樟树港辣椒的土地，都是泥土耕层深厚，土壤酸碱适中，有机质含量较高的高质量土壤。

It is reputed as the "Hermès of peppers" or the "Rolls Royce of peppers". The land where the Zhangshugang pepper grows is rich in high-quality layers of soil with a moderate acidity and alkalinity, and a high organic matter content.

无辣不成菜。辣椒，湘菜的灵魂味道。烈油烹炒，辣椒间的碰撞，香与辣交融渗透，当樟树港辣椒摄入，灵魂之汁便早已注入其中。

There is no dish in Hunan cuisine without chilli peppers. The soul of Hunan cuisine comes from them. Put Zhangshugang peppers in the iron wok, stir-fry them in strong oil, and then the aroma and spiciness of the peppers mix and blend in the "collisions" of each other. When the dish is done, the "soul" juice has already penetrated into the peppers.

作为湖湘大地上，代表性的辣椒品种，相信上过太空的樟树港“湘”椒，一定也会给你的味蕾，带来一次非同凡响的旅程。

As the representative pepper variety on the land of Hunan, I believe that the once-in-the-space Zhangshugang pepper will definitely bring you an extraordinary journey of tastes.
