Description:
Chile Rellenos peppers are a great variety for Northern regions with shorter growing seasons and are used traditionally in the dish called Chile Rellenos.
These pepper plants grow to about 30-36" tall and are very prolific, producing good yields of these beauties. Chile Rellenos grow to 5-6" long and are generally thick-walled peppers with medium flesh. They will ripen from yellow, green, to then red, but they are great to eat fresh during their green and red stages.
Chile Relleno peppers have a bit of a kick, but nothing to fret about as you won’t notice the heat at all. This is a perfect pepper for the classic Chile Relleno casserole or any Mexican dish, and also great for stuffing, roasting, frying, stir-frying, and canning. Don’t miss out on this popular pepper!
