Purple UFO

[Bumper]

Just tried my first purple ufo - an annum variety.  Grew them as a curio as much as anything, but they are really delicious.  They have a flesh that tastes like apple skin while you chew it and is a bit on the thin side, but has a great immediate heat around tabasco level and really nice clean apple aftertaste stays with you for about 15 minutes.  only 2 seeds in it.  I reckon they would be great to spice up a coleslaw with a pulled pork.  Plant is loaded with flowers and many are pushing pods though, so should be a good producer.

Cool looking variety. Thanks for sharing.

Sounds unusual flavourwise, maybe shove them in a chutney with red onion and cinnamon?

Yes, a spicy seasonal chutney would work really well with these too!
