Originally native to the mountains of the Mexican states of Puebla and Hidalgo, Serrano peppers get their name from a Spanish word meaning "from the mountains." Known and loved for their unusual combination of both intense heat and flavor.

 

Large 2-3 plants produce plentiful smooth, club-shaped, 1 1/2" long fruits with medium-thick walls. Best used fresh, the fruits mature from green to red. Although shaped similar to the Jalape�o, it�s much hotter. Heat scale is about 10,000 to 20,000 Scovilles.

 

Blocky, wrinkled peppers measure about 1 to 2 inches long and slightly less wide, maturing from silvery green to bright orange on the plant. Fruit is most nutritious if allowed to ripen on the plant.
