Jalapeno peppers are firm and smooth-skinned with thick, pungent 3½ inch fruits on compact plants. The seeds and veins of this pepper are what create the intense heat when eaten, so removing those parts will create a milder flavor. Use Jalapenos in sauces, stews, chili recipes, or in mole sauce. Use these peppers in stir fries, for grilling, or in salsa.
To achieve the perfect tasting salsa with sweet, salty, sour and spicy flavors, try different combinations of: tomato, onion, pepper, garlic, salt, lime juice or vinegar, pinches of sugar, fresh parsley, mint, basil and oregano. For best results plant in full sun and feed with a liquid or slow release fertilizer.
