Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The manuscript entitled "Effects of brines and containers on flavor production of Chinese pickled chili pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) during natural fermentation"  covers contents of flavor compounds in pickled chili pepper depending on the freshness of the brine and type of containers. The manuscript is  well structured,  clearly described and the results are carefully discussed. The authors have done a very arduous  work on the trials and the results they have obtained.

However, a number of suggestions and comments are made on manuscript (see attached PDF file) which may be useful to increase the quality of the manuscript.
