RIP – Peter Seymour – AKA ChilliPepperPete

It is a very sad day for me today, I have just found out that Peter Seymour aka ChilliPepperPete has passed away. Peter was one of my first people to offer to help me when I started writing The Hot Book of Chillies, he and his family always provided a warm welcome to me on my infrequent visits to his home and office in Brighton.

Over the past few years Peter has provided a number of recipes for us and was always provided news and information, he was always kind and generous with his time, a true friend.

The business he founded ChilliPepperPete and the Fiery Foods UK (FFUK) Chilli Festival we hope will go from strength to strength. This years Festival will be a celebration of the life of one of the godfathers of the UK chilli industry and takes place on the 14th-16th September in Brighton.

Peter will be very sadly missed and our thoughts are with his family at this time. Rest in Peace Peter Seymour – Long live ChilliPepperPete.
