Capsicum (fructus)
Capsicum[1] seu chilli[2][3] est fructus plantarum florentium generis Capsici, in familia Solanacearum. Huic generi sunt quinque fere species, quarum cultivarietatibus homines pro cibo et medicamentis uti solent, videlicet Capsicum annuum, C. baccatum, C. chinense, C. frutescens, C. pubescens.
Illae C. annui varietates, quibus sapor non pungens sed dulcis sit, a productoribus comestoribusque nomine semper distinguuntur. Latine "capsicum dulce" appellantur.[4]
Aves fructibus capsicorum pabulantur, animalia rarissime quod apud ea capsaicinum dolorem stimulat.[5] Homines tantum se capsicis medent.[6]
De nominibus
recensereCapsicum e verbo Graecitatis Byzantinae κάψικον derivatur, quod invicem e vocabulo Latino capsa mutuatur. Ioannes Actuarius, medicus Graecus saeculi XIII, κάψικον pluries, semel κάψικον Ἰνδικόν (i.e. "capsicum Indicum") in praeceptis medicamentorum scripsit, sine explicatione. Ioannes Ruellius, versionis Latinae Actuarii confector, "capsicum" et "capsicum Indicum" sine pluribus scripsit.[7] Idem, auctor postea De natura stirpium, "cardamomum" hoc vocabulo Graeco intellegendum esse censuit,[8] quem Carolus du Cange secutus est.[9] Sed Casparus Bauhinus in Phytopinace, Actuario per editionem 1567 citato, idem vocabulum "capsicum/κάψικον" sicut synonymum "piperis Indici" intellegit, etymologiae falsae utens (non e vocabulo Latino capsa sed e Graeco κάπτω "haurio" deduci suasit)[10] geographiamque et historiam deviam assumens: hoc enim genus, non in India sensu normali sed in Indis occidentalibus Americaque continente ortum, Actuarius scriptor saeculi XIII Europaeus cognoscere nequibat. Rubrica Bauhini "Capsicum seu Piper Indicum" nihilominus ab aliis botanistis accepta (praesertim a Gregorio de Regio qui de his fructibus mox utilissime disseruerit) omnes fere eruditi recentiores hoc nomen adhibent.
Ají, nomen origine Arawakense, Christophorus Columbus primus Europaeorum anno 1493 audivit:[11] quod nomen ex Hispaniola in usum Hispanorum omnium Novi Mundi incolarum apprehensum est. Petrus Martyr ab Angleria (De orbe novo decades) hoc vocabulum ad Latinitatem suam anno 1530 accommodavit: "De pipere insulari continentique nunc parum ... dico piper quum non sit piper, quia piperis habeat vim et aroma ... vocant ipsi haxi ultima acuta".[12][13]
Chilli fuit nomen apud Aztecos linguá Navatlacá usitatum. Ita iam rettulit conquisitator anonymus in Relatione anno circiter 1521 scripta.[14]
Piper (ut qui ad aroma Piperis nigri alluderet) est nomen in linguis Europaeis iam ab anno 1493 saepissime adhibitum quia capsicum locum piperis in arte coquinaria Americanorum habuisse censebatur (ita iam Columbus et Petrus Martyr supra citati) atque mox in gastronomia Europaea talem usum usurpare incipiebat. Piper Indicum plures saeculo XVI scripserunt, ea ratione quod "Indiae occidentales" et "orientales" ab initio apud Europaeos haud distinguebantur; alii inter quos Carolus Clusius, ambiguitate huius nominis suasi, Piper Americanum scribere maluerunt.
Pigmentum (i.e. tinctura, conditura) est origo Latinus nominis in variis linguis hodiernis adhibiti sicut synonymum piperis vel speciarii.
Quiya atque recentius cayenne, nomina tam pulveris culinarii quam cultivarietatis, e nuncupationibus in lingua Tupi capsicorum in Brasilia saeculo XVII cognitorum derivantur, sit quiyaqui, quiya-apua, quiya-cumati, quiya-carapo apud Bontium;[15] quiya-apua, quiya-cumeri, quiya-uca;[16] kyynha, varietates kyynhavi, kyynhai;[17] quiya, quiynhá.[18] Unde Anglice a principio kian, chian, chyan, kayan, cayan appellabatur, denuo ab anno 1783 cayenne pepper.[19]}}
Uchu est nomen in lingua Quechua adhibita.[20] Hodie apud Peruanos varietates Peruvianas denotat, ají varietates Mexicanas et Caribicas.
Capsicum in America et Europa
recenserePrimus Europaeorum Christophorus Columbus de capsico fructu in ephemeride primae navigationis sub die 15 Ianuarii 1493 refert: "Abundat etiam ají, videlicet piper huius gentis e quorum magis quam piper valeant, sine quo nullus unquam cenat, quod saluberrimum est; quo quinquaginta caravellae quotannis in hac Hispaniola onerari possunt."[11] Ipse semina huius fructus ad reges Hispanicos statim reddidit, sicut ex epistula anno insequenti in insula Isabella scripta constat: "illius axí quod nos piper nuncupamus, de quo e prima navigatione ad Exc. vestr. adduximus, hinc recipietis quantum mandabitis; cuius semina in hortis serta crescuntur."[22] Didacus Alvares Chanca etiam, particeps huius navigationis, in epistula anno 1494 scripta ait: "Tanquam speciem ad condimentum habent speciem agí appellatam, e qua tam pisces quam aves quantas capiant comeduntur; quae multis varietatibus prodit"[23] Conquisitator anonymus (sic nuncupatus) qui cum Cortesio Mexicopolim anno 1519 venit de "pipere" nundinis huius urbis venditato ait:[24] "Habent varietatem piperis condimentarii, chil appellati, sine quo nullum cibum comedunt."[25]
Seminibus a Columbo in Hispaniam remissis, cultus in hortis usque in Germaniam anno 1539 penetraverat, ubi Hieronymus Bock Spirae in urbe observans originem speciei nescivit: deutscher Pfeffer nuncupavit.[21] E talibus observationibus Leonhartus Fuchsius anno 1542, nomina vernacularia indianischer et Calecutischer Pfeffer citans, speciebus a maioribus definitis "siliquastro" et "piperitide" frustra attribuere temptans, optimas imagines varietatum quattuor (inter quas fortasse Capsici chinensis) divulgavit.[29] Quem sequens Guilielmus Turnerus anno 1548 capsica in hortis Angliae aliquibus coli relatus est (granis non albis sed flavis collectis) eisdemque nominibus usus est.[30] Conradus Gesnerus anno 1561 e scientia horticultorum Germanorum "Aestiva est herba" recte ait "et nisi primo vere apud nos seratur, siliquas suas pulcherrime rubentes non perficit".[31] Ergo Iohannes Gerardus, de Anglia anno 1597 loquens, has plantas e terris extraneis in Hispaniam Italiamque importatas "unde nos" ait "semina in nostros hortos Anglicos accepimus, cuius capsicum non iam ad illum splendidum colorem rubrum maturabat quem suá naturá possidet" causa adversitatis climaticae.[32]
Interea Carolus Clusius, botanistarum saeculi XVI princeps, cultum capsicorum in Hispania et Portugallia rettulit tam ex itinere suo annis 1564 et 1565 suscepto, quam e descriptione Nicolai Monardes quam ipse e lingua Hispanica Latine verterit:
- Nec praetermittendum est piper ex Indiis nostris missum, quandoquidem non modo in medicum usum receptum est, sed planta est excellentissima et totae Hispaniae notissima: nam nullus est hortus, in quo non seratur ob fructus pulchritudinem. Vidi aliquando in hac urbe ad arboris altitudinem excrescentem. Folio est viridi, ocymo latifolio simili, flore albo, ex quo pullulat fructus diversae formae, oblongus, rotundus, melope[po]nis forma aut ceraseorum, sed immaturius viridis est, maturus vero colore rubro gratissimo. Particulatim concisum et iusculo maceratum, meliorem saporem edulus conciliat, quam piper vulgare, ideoque eius usus est in omnibus, in quibus aromata ex Maluccis insulis et Calecutio delata commendantur, in eo solum differens, quod illa multis aureis emuntur, hoc sola satione adquiritur: nam in una planta colliguntur aromata in totius anni usum, minore dispendio et maiore commodo. Flatus discutit, utlie pectori et perfrictionibus, calefacitque et roborat partes internas. Caliditatis et siccitatis in quarto fere gradu particeps:[33]
Litteris parvis addidit ipse Clusius: "Capsicum hoc seu piper Indicum (Americum potius) diligentissime colitur tota Castella cum ab hortulanis, tum a mulieribus in fenestris aedium suarum. Etenim eo utuntur per totum annum, cum virente tum sicco, pro condimento et pipere. Spectatur varia forma ... sed et haec omnia genera aliquando vidi colore flavescente, in Lusitania, monasterio quodam circa Olysiponem".[34]
Clusius postea se "Ulyssipone Conimbricam" proficiscente hanc speciem "nonnullis Lusitaniae locis" vidisse meminit, "caule in cubitales ramos diviso, graciliores tamen quam in vulgari", fructu exiguo "tam acris et fervidi saporis, ut gullatum fauces incenderet".[35] Quod ille piper Brasilianum appellabat, nos sub nomine Capsici baccati recognoscere possumus.
Idem Clusius primus omnium de cultu prope Hungariam hac annotatione relatus est: "Memini etiam videre anno Christi M.D.XXCV magná copiá cultum in suburbanis Brunnae celebris marchionatus Moraviae urbis hortis, e quo cultores non contemnendum quaestum faciebant; erat enim apud vulgus frequens eius usus". Hodie eadem fere regione tritura paprica nomine e varietatibus capsicorum admodum mitioribus producitur.
Garcias Lasus Inca primus omnium, in Hispania exsul saeculo XVII ineunte scribens, species tres Peruvianas cultas generis Capsici distinxit, videlicet rocot uchu (C. pubescens), chinchi uchu (C. chinense), tertiaque cuius nominis oblitus est, id est, kellu-uchu (C. baccatum var. pendulum). Los de mi tierra, ait, son tan amigos del uchu, que no comeron sin el, aunque non sea sino unas yervas crudas ("gens patriae meae capsicum tam amant ne ullus cibus sine illud comedatur etiamsi nihil nisi paucae herbae crudae").[36]
Cultus capsicorum a scriptoribus saeculo XVIII describitur, generis "climatum calidissimorum Americae et Africae oriundi" cui tempus sationis in Europa ultima hebdomas mensis Februarii esse debet;[37] solam plantam esse (fabis exceptis) asseveratur "cui rustici Provinciae Francicae Occitaniaeque curas minutiores volenter dabunt: promptiores mense Februario, alii Martio serunt".[38] Saeculo XIX ineunte botanistae separatim species tres, videlicet annuam, frutescentem, baccatam recognoverunt,[39] saepe et quartam fructibus dulcibus.[40] Speciem C. chinense Nicolaus Iosephus Jacquin anno 1776 ex horto botanico imperiali Vindobonensi descripsit.[41]
Capsicum in Asia et Africa
recensereHanchei in urbe Sinarum iam anno 1591 ad hortos ornandos cultum est.[42]
Capsicum "ubique" in Corea, secundum Yi Su-gwang, anno 1614 colebatur: "piper barbarorum meridianorum", i.e. Portugallensium, nuncupatum est; ab Iaponia in Coream introductum erat.[43]
Usus
recensereFructus capsaicinum, substantiam facile in pingue dissolventem (lipophilicam) continet, quod dolorem ingentem et acerbum per receptorium capsaicini (TrpV1) inurit.[44]. Antagonista TrpV1 dolores mitigare queant.[45]
Tali sensu statim agnito, diaetetici Europaei iam medio saeculo XVI capsicum calidum ad gradum tertium vel et quartum ordinabant. Usque in medium saeculum XVIII, sicut antea, auctores hoc aroma hominibus sub climate tripico habitantibus, neque aliis, utile esse aiunt: ita Vincentius La Chapelle, scriptor de re coquinaria Francicus, habitudines "Indicas", scilicet Indiarum occidentalium, explicavit: C'est la manière Indienne. Au lieu de safran ce sont des racines de safran dont ils se servent, et à la place de poivre, c'est du piment ("mos est Indorum: loco croci curcumam, loco piperis capsicum adhibent").[46]
Eodem fere tempore horticultor quidam Anglus primus omnium utilitatem capsicorum aceto conditorum confessus est: The flower is inconsiderable, but the fruit is conspicuous in the highest degree ... it affords an excellent pickle ("Flos eius haud notabilis, fructus autem conspicuissimus condituram optimam praebet").[47] Distinctio saeculo XVIII exeunte inter provincias septentrionales mediasque Franciae relata est, capsicis hic ad comesum cottidianum et loco piperis, illic ad hortos ornandos cultis. Insuper provinciis meridianis capsica ad ientaculum loco cepae et allii consumebantur. Idem auctor condituram capsicorum sicut anguriorum refert atque (primus omnium) confectionem aceti e capsicis per iniectionem capsicorum in cupas acetarias "ut vim aceti maturescentis augetur".[48] Illi autem, qui usus "Indorum" Caribicorum Hispanorumque et Lusitanorum descripserunt, alias confectiones varias enumeraverunt: capsica e saccharo condita; sorbitiones patinasque et elixa e capsicis accommodata; parationem butyri cayennae.[49]
Fructus capsicorum inter pabula salubriora gallinis dari solet.[50] In medicina veterinaria aut capsaicinum aut "capsici fructus acer" (i.e. fructus siccus capsici cayennensis) aut Capsicum frutescens praescribitur ad morbum Newcastle(en) avium, praesertim gallinarum curandum.[51] Fructus capsicorum praescribuntur a populo Aguaruna Peruviae ad diarrhoeam canium venatorum, sicut et hominum, medendam.[52]

No quiero dexir de dezir de la pimienta que traen delas Indias, que non solo sirve a medicina, pero es especie excelentissima, la qual es conocida en toda España, porque no ay jardin ni huerta ni maceton que no la tenga sembrada por la hermosura del fructo que lleva. Es planta grande, tanto que yo he visto en esta ciudad alguna que ygualava con algunes arboles. Echa las hojas verdes a modo de albahaca de la ancha que llaman charanfoli. Echa unas flores blancas de que sale el fructo, que es en diversas formas: unos pimientos son largos, otros redondos, otros de hechura de melones, otros de ceresas, pero todos son al principio quando no estan maduros muy verdes, et maduros muy colorados, con un color muy gracioso. Usan dellos en todos los guisados y potages, porque haze mejor gusto que la pimienta comun: hecho tajadas y echadas en caldo, es salsa excelentissima, usan dellos en todo aquello que sirven las especies que traen de Maluco y de Calicud. Desieren en que las della India cuestan muchos ducados: estotra no cuesta mas que sembrarla, porque en una planta ay especias para todo el año, con menos daño y mas provecho nostro. Conforta mucho, ressuelve ventosidades, son buenos para el pecho, y para los frios de complexion, calienta y conforta, corroborando los miembros principales.

- ↑ Dans la majeure partie de nos provinces du nord, on ne cultive cette plante que pour la décoration des potagers ... Il n’en est pas ainsi dans les provinces de l’intérieur, son fruit dans la maturité et quand il est sec tient complètement lieu de poivre dans les cuisines des grandes et petites fermes. Dans nos provinces du midi, leurs habitans préfèrent un poivron à l’oignon et à l’ail pour le repas du matin. Le poivron est ce fruit encore petit et vert, et qui n’a pas encore changé de couleur. Lorsque sa robe a pris la teinte du corail, il ne sert plus que pour la cuisine ... Le fruit tient lieu de poivre à une très-grande partie des habitans de ce royaume.

Les marchands de vinaigre ont grand soin d’ajouter une certaine quantité de poivrons murs et secs dans leurs barriques de vinaigre, dont ils augmentent singulièrement la "force": Rozier (1789)
