Product information
Pepperoncini - Tuscan Frigitello Pepper - Seeds - Capsicum Annuum - Vegetable
Pepperoncini (or pepperoncini) are a variety of the species Capsicum annuum, like bell peppers and chilli peppers. They are also known as Tuscan peppers, sweet Italian peppers and golden Greek peppers. While called pepperoncini in American English, in Italy these particular kind of peppers are called friggitello (plural friggitelli) or more generally peperone (plural peperoni) like other sweet varieties of peppers, while the term pepperoncini (singular pepperoncino) is used for hotter varieties of chilli peppers. The Greek varieties are sweeter and less bitter than the Italian varieties grown in Tuscany. Peperoncini are mild with a slight heat and a hint of bitterness, and are commonly pickled and sold packaged in jars. Peperoncini are typically used in sandwiches, salads (particularly Greek salad, tossed salads served in pizzerias and antipasto platters) and as a garnish to lend dishes a crunchy texture and a salty taste. Peperoncini are sometimes briefly rinsed in cold water before serving to reduce the effects of the pickling brine on the taste. Pickled pepperoncini can vary in colour from bright yellow to bright yellow-green. You are buying a 5 seed pack.
