Serrano Pepper is a finger-shaped pepper that's similar to a Jalapeno with slightly more heat. Serrano has a great flavor when chopped and eaten fresh as a taco topping. It also ma kes a great component of any fresh garden salsa. Plants are typically 2-3' tall and produce loads of 3" fruits that are similar to a jalapeno in wall thickness, but are more slender. Fruits will initially be green and have a mild flavor. If left on the plant, they will mature to a deep red color with intensified flavor and heat. Once red and dried, Serrano Pepper makes excellent chipotles for homemade hot sauces. They also perform well when pickled into pepper rings for salads, sandwiches and more. Show more
