Description
Italian Pepperoncini produces slender, gently wrinkled peppers with thin skins, mild heat, and a bright, tangy flavor that has made them a staple of Mediterranean-style plates. Harvested green, the pods have that familiar pickling snap; left longer, they blush toward red and soften in sweetness.
The plants are productive and easy to appreciate, setting peppers for brines, antipasto, sandwiches, salads, pizza, and fresh nibbling. This is a variety for gardeners who like a little spark without a heavy burn, and a harvest that looks right at home in jars.
