Early Jalapeno Pepper
Origin: Mexico
Item #: CHILE001
This is a standard Jalapeno
Hot Pepper strain with some improvements to yield a somewhat earlier crop.
This popular variety is wonderful for stir-frying, slicing and is considered
the standard pepper for use in nachos,salsa and other Mexican cuisine.
The Jalapeno takes its name from the city of Xalapa (Jalapa), Mexico where
it is thought to have originated. The Jalapeno pepper has since gained
tremendous fame due to its versatility in the food industry. Jalapeno Peppers
are commonly found in most chain stores, processed sliced and canned.
The Jalapeno features a sweet, but hot flavor and delivers approximately
4750 units of heat on the Scoville scale.
Each individual chile pepper
is approximately 3 1/2 inches long by 1 1/2 inches wide and begins its
life as a very dark forest green color, but then matures to a brilliant
scarlet red. These peppers are produced in large numbers on a very vigorous
24 to 26 inch plant. The peppers themselves may be harvested when green
or red. Besides their obvious uses in mexican cuisine, the Jalapeno Chile
Peppers are also used in the production of Jalapeno Pepper jelly (see below).
This wonderful chile pepper matures in about 73 days.
