Buy your Organic NuMex Suave Red chili seeds
The Chili Pepper Institute of New Mexico State University has bred this new Habanero variety, which has their incomparable fruity aroma, but is still mild. For 'NuMex Suave Red' 500 scoville units were measured. On the burn-o-meter scale, this corresponds to the heat degree of 1 to 2 (for comparison: "normal" Habaneros are at the top with scale with a level 10). It was only in the spring of 2002 that the smallest quantities of the highly aromatic, mild Habanero new breed became available. We have grown the variety as a test and are thrilled.
The plants grow well and the pods become magnificent. If you cut them open, you smell the full Habanero aroma - the smell tells you they should be very hot. However, biting into it, surprisingly, it only gives taste, and minimal heat. In this way you can use it for example in fruity salsas and sauces that for flavor would need many more habanero chillies without making them unbearably hot. Also filled with cheese and grilled, they are a real treat. For the 2003 season, the seeds were commercially released and we look forward to being one of the first to offer them in the Pepperworld Hot Shop.
Description:
One may not believe it, but here is finally a Habanero variety for non-extreme eaters. It was bred in the New Mexico Chile Pepper Institute. The fruity aroma of the Caribbean habaneros was maintained, but some, not to say almost everything, was taken away when it comes to the heat. So you can now enjoy this chilli without burning your mouth. The name Suave means mild and derives from Spanish.
