Another great looking pepper from Judy at Pepperlover.com
I don`t know why, but I always find myself attracted to round peppers like this. They just look cool, I think. The Aromas from the pepper were fairly subdued, but typical of C.annuum. Slightly sweet, slightly fruity and a variation on the red bell pepper aromas.
The flavour, however, was in a different ballpark altogether from a bell pepper. There was some slight sweetness, but incredibly fruity flavors, balanced with a nice acidic element. The fruit flavors it reminded me of were slight cherry notes, with a lot of aromatic notes reminiscent of a ripe pear. The acidity just brought all the flavors together to make a really delicious whole.
The heat was very low, perhaps a quarter of a Jalapeño, but the flavors were so good, who cares?!?!?!?
