I hate them the traditional way. Tried it once, horrible! . I much prefer them when they’re ripe ( red ). I use them as sweet peppers in curries, chillies, pizza anything. In salad when fresh, I’m on frozen ones now.(02-12-2020, 12:52 AM)Small chilli Wrote: I can highly recommend for no heat, Padron,
I am intrigued by this as it is far from our experience!
There is a saying about them unos pican otros no, something along the lines of some are hot and some are not! I served our first harvest the traditional way, fried whole with salt for dipping for a starter, and wondered if we'd get the one in ten that are quite hot. Well we had a 100% hit rate and found them far too hot to munch whole. And I like heat and use at least one fatalii for a 2 person chili!
I've grown them often since and the percentage is always more hot than not, I wonder why?
Must be my special Pyrenean soil because the odds are rarely in my favour But yes, they are nice red
