The Lemon Spice Jalapeño Pepper is a truly delightful innovation that reimagines the classic jalapeño pepper. Developed by the Chile Pepper Institute in New Mexico, this stunning pepper transitions from green to a radiant sunny yellow as it ripens, adding an unparalleled splash of color to your dishes and garden.
While its vibrant hue sets it apart, this jalapeño maintains all the fiery heat you’d expect, now enhanced with a nuanced citrus undertone. It’s the perfect marriage of bold flavor and aesthetic appeal.
