No peppers without Columbus? Who knows if peppers would have made it to Europe without the discoverer of America. On his second voyage, it was he who brought back seeds of the plant, which first became known as "Indian pepper". In the royal gardens, however, peppers were grown as an ornamental plant before being cultivated as a spice. From Sardinia, cultivation spread throughout the Mediterranean and eastward. Then in Hungary there was a real hype about the plant. It was cultivated and grafted for all it was worth. And to this day, the cultivation of paprika and the powder have a special significance there. Not for nothing is the spice called "red gold".
