Product description

Jalapeos are perfect for adding a kick of heat to your mealtimes! Originally hailing from Mexico - they got the name jalapeo from Xalapa, the capital of the Mexican state of Veracruz - but now cultivated around the world, jalapeos are members of the nightshade family, alongside potatoes and tomatoes, but they are more commonly known as the chili peppers that are used to flavour salsa and salad dressing. Green when harvested, jalapeos turn red as they ripen, although they are usually used in an unripened state. Crunchy in texture, jalapeos have a fresh flavour that is similar to that of a green bell pepper, and are renowned for their spiciness. The heat varies from pepper to pepper, but they are mild enough to be eaten whole. Jalapeos can be enjoyed in many different ways: you can dice or mince them to spread the heat throughout a salad dressing or salsa; add slices of jalapeo to nachos and tacos if you fancy an intensely tangy bite, or fill them with cheese, cover with breadcrumbs, and deep-fry them to recreate a popular American snack! You can also dry and smoke jalapeos to turn them into chipotles, and they are additionally ideal for pickling if you want to try a new, delicious condiment to serve alongside your favourite meals. We recommend making spicy jalapeo poppers, a delectable appetizer perfect for a dinner party, and a refreshing, super healthy Mexican corn salad! Check out the 'Further information' tab below for the recipes. For those who enjoy a more moderate flavour, we suggest removing the jalapeo's seeds and ribs, but remember to wash your hands straight after doing so as their oils might cause discomfort if they come into contact with your eyes, nose, and sensitive areas of skin. As well as being very flavoursome, jalapeos are also nutritionally valuable, being a good source of dietary fibre and boasting a high content of various vitamins and minerals.
