Capsicum annuum (Capsicum annuum)

Early Jalapeño

3-5 cm long, elongated but thick fruits with blunt top, red when mature. Thick flesh. 1000-3000 scoville. Characteristic jalapeño taste. This variety matures earlier than most other jalapeño varieties. Jalapeño is often used green, but is also used smoked for chipotle. Not well suited for drying because of the thick flesh.
