Description:The Peter Pepper Red is best known for its distinctive shape, which has led to its playful nicknames like “penis pepper” and “chilli phallus.” When fully ripe, it flaunts a vibrant red hue.
The pepper grows to approximately 10 to 15 centimetres in length, with a long conical shape and a bulbous end that indeed resembles—you guessed it—a certain anatomical feature!
Cutting away from the giggles, the taste of the Peter Pepper Red is akin to the bright, crisp flavor of a jalapeño, but with a hint of sweetness. If you’re looking to elevate the heat in your dishes, consider using it as a jalapeño or serrano substitute. It’s versatile and can be incorporated into various culinary creations.
