HABANERO PEPPER


One of the world's Hottest Peppers! Reportedly 1,000 times hotter than Jalapeiio, Habanero reaches 215,000-300,000 Scovilles of heat! Thin walled peppers 1-2 1/2 inches long, 1-2 inches in diameter, with wrinkled light green flesh. The lantern-shaped, round or oblong pods ripen to a lovely golden orange. In addition to heat Habanero has a delicious, pungent, smoky quality. This flavor and aroma add great flavor to sauces and salsas.

Tip: Remember to wear gloves when handling them to avoid transferring that heat to your eye!
