PEPPER - Chimayó

Capsicum annuum (75 days)  

This was shared with us by seed grower, Sebastian Aguilar, who farmed in New Mexico where this was a popular variety.  Chimayó chilies are unpredictable. A single plant might produce some chilies as long as six or seven inches and many more that are shorter; a few might be straight and skinny, and some will be bent oddly into curlicues. Delicious flavor. Chimayó chilies make great red Chile sauce. It tastes sweet and then hot. SHU – 4-6,000.
