Pepper Chilli Machu Pichu PPP A.Capsicum chinese B.GB40557 C.Lot pkt D.GB

The Machu Pichu chilli peppers originate from Peru, and are native to Central America. The chillis are elongated and have slightly wrinkled skins. Start of dark green and turn a rich brown colour when maturing. They have a rich flavour and a fairly mild to medium pungency. The chillies dry well and make an excellent chilli powder, but can equally well be used fresh. Can grow to sizes up to 10cm long and 3cm wide.
Scoville rating: 10,000 - 15,000 SHU
