Pequin Pepper
3,78 $
Wild shrubby variety from the Tabasco state, in South-Eastern Mexico. This pepper is very small, red, and slightly elongated. About 5 to 8 times stronger than Jalapeno peppers, it ranks between 50 to 70 000 units on the Scoville scale. They are therefore very spicy, on top of their sweet and fruity taste – ideal for those used to spiciness that are seeking to discover new flavors. In sauces, salsas, or dried and ground up they will nicely spice up many different types of meals.
Rare and sometimes mistaken with its rounder cousin, the Tepin pepper.
Our Pequin Pepper seeds were grown at our farm, isolated in a greenhouse and under a fine mesh net.
Package: Around 12 seeds
