Description

Green Jalapeo chile peppers are curved to straight pods, averaging 5 to 15 centimeters in length and 2 to 5 centimeters in diameter, and have a conical shape tapering to a rounded point on the non-stem end. The skin is smooth, taut, and glossy, ripening from dark green to red when mature. Underneath the surface, the thick flesh is crisp, green, and aqueous, encasing a central cavity filled with round and flat, cream-colored seeds. Green Jalapeo chile peppers have a bright, vegetal, and grassy flavor mixed with a mild to moderate level of spice.
