One of the most popular peppers of the last decade. I know so many people who grow these every year and wouldn't think of going without them. Classic for tapas (Spanish snacks or small plates to go with drinks.) You heat some olive oil in a pan, throw these little peppers in, and then serve them salted with something cool to drink. They are mild and only lightly hot--except that once in a while, there is one that is really hot! (This has been called "Spanish Roulette") For best results, harvest the little peppers when they are green and only about one to one-and-a-half inches long. At that size, they are mild and can be eaten whole. At maturity, they are 3-4 inches long, red, and very hot, good for chile powder. 25 seeds
