Long Red Narrow Cayenne Seeds

Long Red Narrow Cayenne Peppers, also known as Long Red Slim Cayenne peppers, is a great heirloom variety to grow in your own garden! They are much thinner than other Cayenne varieties, but provide the same amount of heat and flavor for your culinary uses!

Cayenne pepper plants are dependable producers and early enough for shorter summers. The pods are often curled, wrinkled, and twisted, and they grow to around 5-6" long with tapered ends. They’re so thin that they look like pencils!

The Long Red Narrow Cayenne pepper has a rich spicy flavor with just the right amount of heat for most folks. It's hotter than the Jalapeno but not as hot as a Habanero. If you're making a powder or flakes, try slightly roasting them in the oven with the broiler on before grinding up. Also, they are very good diced up fresh, and used to top off many dishes.
