+**Scoville** refers primarily to the [Scoville scale](/wiki/Scoville_scale), a measure of the pungency or "heat" of chili peppers and other spicy foods. Developed by [Wilbur Scoville](/wiki/Wilbur_Scoville), this scale quantifies the concentration of capsaicinoids, the chemical compounds responsible for their fiery sensation.
