Description:
The White Devil's Tongue is one of the most versatile white peppers on the market! Relative to the original red pepper strain, this variety is very hard to come by and is one of the most sought-after types on the market due to its rarity.
White Devil's Tongue pepper plants will stretch up to 3 ft. tall and grow good bounties of these 3" long pods. The name White Devil's Tongue comes from the pepper's appearance, which looks like a strange and distorted tongue from the devil himself! They look very similar to a Fatalii pepper, ripening from light lime green to a purple color, before finally changing to white at its final stage. However, the chili does have a slight yellow tint when at full maturity.
Although its twisted shape forms to look like the Devil's tongue, don’t be intimated by its appearance! For a hellish-looking pepper, it's not a super hot variety, registering 150,000-300,000 SHUs for a biting heat, but not blistering. The pepper has some habanero flavor with less of an earthy taste. Use these peppers for a variety of culinary purposes like drying, grilling, roasting, sauteeing, and stuffing!
