Is Cayenne pepper perishable?

Question

Is Cayenne pepper perishable?

Answer 1

All food with time can spoil. I tried looking for information on it. It was very difficult to find any that would tell me when it would spoil. I do know that the dried will last much longer than the fresh. Also make sure it is stored in an air tight container in a cool dry place.

Answer 2

No  it won't spoil as long as you keeps it dry, but it will loose it's flavor profile after about 3 months

Answer 3

Any herb or spice will lose it's effectiveness over time.

The flavour depends on volatile oils in the leaves or seeds.

Answer 4

All spices lose there spice after a while, which is why spices have expiration dates..

Answer 5

It's not perishable but it loses it's potency over time just like any spice
