Hot Pepper

Hot Pepper is a domesticated version of the Wild Pepper, which can be farmed for use in cooking.

Cultivation
Find a Wild Pepper Plant in the Jungle and pick a Wild Pepper. Use a Flint Chip or knife to extract the Pepper Seed. (Note: If you don't intend to use it immediately, place it in a bowl, otherwise it will decay after 5 minutes).

Sow the seed in a deep tilled row, then water with bowl of water or full water pouch, and after 6 minutes, the plant will bear 4 ripe Hot Peppers. If all peppers are harvested, the row will turn into a Hardened Row.

Further seeds can be extracted from Hot Peppers as with Wild Peppers. Individual seeds can be taken out of the bowl to plant, or the bowl of seeds can be used directly on the plot.

Cooking
Hot Pepper can be added to a Plate of chopped tomato and onion in order to make Salsa.
