Serrano
Love Jalapenos but want a green spicy pepper with a little kick? This small finger-shaped Mexican staple is hotter than a Jalapeño and heats up to 25,000 SHUs! The Serrano pepper is similar in color and fresh flavor, but smaller and meatier. They will ripen from green to red, but they are commonly red, brown, orange, or yellow. You’re likely to harvest them in their green color. The Serrano chili pepper is a great tasting pepper that will grow up to 4” long with medium-thin walls that are perfect for stuffing! The Serrano pepper plant will grow to around 30 inches long and are productive to grow.
Try including the Serrano chile into your Pico de Gallo or salsa for a truly authentic flavor, or for relishes, garnishes, hot sauces, roasting, and pan cooked.
Fun Fact:The name serrano is a reference to the mountains in the Mexican states of Puebla and Hidalgo.
