Pepper ~ Jimmy Nardello's

A treasured Italian heirloom brought to North America by the Nardello family in the late 19th century, this variety is celebrated for its exceptional sweetness and rich, full flavor. Long, slender fruits ripen from glossy green to a deep, vibrant red, with thin walls that blister and caramelize beautifully when fried. The taste is intensely sweet with no heat, making it ideal for sautéing, roasting, drying, or enjoying fresh. Productive plants thrive in warm, sheltered conditions and perform well in Canadian gardens with a good growing season. A beloved culinary pepper with remarkable depth and history. Italian Frying Pepper. 70-80 days green, 85-90 days red
