Stuffed, Roasted, Blistered, Pickled, Dried
Whether its hot, sweet or tangy we have the pepper for you. Below are listed all the starts that we will have available this season.
Hot Peppers
2021 Star of the T & T Garden. Just 2 plants made enough to dehydrate & grind into several jars of cayenne spice.
Cayenne Red Thin pepper produces very hot, thin-walled, curled, twisted, pointed fruits that reach 6″ in length. The peppers are dark purple or dark green when young but turn bright red about 70 days when they reach maturity. The pungency develops early in these peppers, so they can be used as soon as they are 1″ long. 40,000 Scoville Heat Units.
No Sweat Peppers
2021 Star of the T & T Garden. Extremely prolific! This variety bears sweet, mild banana peppers that mature from yellow, to orange, and then to crimson red. Plants fruit prolifically, easily producing up to 25 to 30 pods per plant. Banana peppers are Sweet, full-flavored – great for frying and pickling, and are an excellent choice for making pepper rings for sandwiches. Great for containers. Pick full-sized peppers mid season for a second flush of production towards the end of the growing season. Allow the second crop to ripen to their perfect orangeish red for a full-bodied mouth-watering pepper.
Sweet Peppers
Amazingly fragrant Macedonian roasting pepper. Stocky 2′ plants covered in 6-7″ rich red peppers. Throw half a dozen on your grill, everybody in your neighborhood will smell them! These thick-fleshed traditional peppers are roasted on flat metal stoves, peeled, then ground into a traditional relish called ajvar, which is eaten spread on bread, often with sirenje, a local cheese similar to feta.
2021 Star of the T & T Garden. Fruiting into November with delicious sweet and crisp taste.
Fruits start green and change to yellow, then orangish. Sweetest when fully ripe, but still mild and lightly sweet at the yellow stage. The 6″-10″ long, 3″ wide peppers start out green and ripen to yellow, becoming very sweet. Extremely flavorful raw, considered by some to be superior to bell peppers.
2021 Star of the T & T Garden. Everyone in the family found this to be a favorite. In 2022 T & T will be growing more of these than any other pepper. Fruit is emerald green in color, ripening to red, and mildly flavored with just a bit of spice. Blistered Shishitos are the pinnacle of appetizers. Flash-fried in a pan and served with dipping sauce, perfect for making tempura and other traditional recipes they are now a popular starter on tables across America. The name “Shishito” means “Lion Pepper.” Fiercely flavored with a stable temperament.
