This is the pepper that will forever hold our favorite place; it’s what made me fall in love with peppers.<\/p>\n
Being the only heritage pepper ‘from’ Maryland, these beauties actually come to us from the Afro-Caribbean slave trade via the port of Baltimore.\u00a0 Kept solely in that community until Dr. Horace Pippin shared the seeds publicly in the 1970’s.<\/p>\n
Thought to be a sport (or natural mutation) of a serrano pepper, the uniqueness of these peppers comes from their variegation.<\/p>\n
Sought after for cooking (especially in soups and sauces for fish, hence the name) in the fully variegated, white, un-ripe phase for their creamy flavor with no hints of chlorophyll.<\/p>\n
Pods ripen from green with white stripes, to yellow and orange with white stripes eventually to full red.<\/p>\n
Highly productive plants we have grown for over a decade.<\/p>\n
