Have You ever Tasted Banana Pepper? - Part 1 - Food Variety 26

Thursday, January 5, 2023

As you might be known that there are hundreds of pepper types sold in the market worldwide.



Fig 01- Banana peppers sold in a Mexican grocery.


Banana pepper with scientific name Capsicum annuum, with quite larger (bigger) size compared to normal chili, as far as I know.


However, from internet searching, size of Banana peppers includes medium in the peppers or chili varieties.


Length is around 6 inches (15 cm) and diameter is about 1.5 inches (3.8 cm). In the nature as reported by Pepper Geek (2022: “When To Pick Banana Peppers – How To Know When To Harvest”), this pepper could mature at a smaller length and a diameter.

Fig 03- A bottle of Banana pepper’s Pickle, sold in Walmart.


I found this pepper in a Mexican store in my city. The color is yellow, but it is said that when peppers are ripen, the color changes to red, orange or even green.


Some of banana peppers is processed to pickled, and other used as ingredient in many type of foods.

  8. Oh, the hotter the better! I love them on my sandwiches! Chopped up after being pickled are great for a substitute of pickles in tuna and chicken salad. I love them on salads too.
