Peppers

PEPPER (HOT)
Hungarian Yellow Wax

A medium-hot Old World favorite, Hungarian Yellow Wax is the perfect pick for pickled peppers. Developed in Hungary, this pepper has a waxy color that resembles bees' wax. Wax peppers are actually orange-red when ripe, but are usually harvested while yellow. Pepper walls are thin and peppers are usually used fresh in salads, pickled, fried, canned or roasted.
