This popular Greek pepperoncini is a bit sweeter than others and commonly found in pizzerias tossed in salads for a crunchy, salty taste.
 
Usually picked at 2 to 3 inches long, when they are still light green in color. The wrinkled peppers taper to a blunt, lobed end and are very popular for pickling. Fruits are mild and sweet with a slight heat to them, and are commonly jarred for use in Greek salads and salad bars.
 
Plants are compact, fairly early and very productive.
 
If you love a dash of spicy and love pickled things, you’re going to absolutely adore pickling your own pepperoncini! They've got that slightly sweet heat tang that brings many foods to life. They are also very tasty raw and cooked into foods, but really the pickled pepperoncini is where this chili shines the most.
 
These peppers have been around since about the 1600s, and probably originated in Italy when it was controlled by the Spanish. This is a Greek variety. Peppers came to Europe in the age of colonization from South America.
 
These peppers, also known as Greekoncinis, have a little bit of heat. They have about 100-500 Scoville Heat Units. They are traditionally pickled, and are also a great addition to Greek salads.
