Large, study plants produce an abundance of green fruits that mature to a bright, shiny red. Aji Rico peppers are delicious when eaten at any ripeness stage can be easily dried to make a homemade "paprika" style powder or pepper flake.

We made a delicious and versatile based hot sauce with this pepper and apple cider vinegar, which enhanced the peppers citrus undertones.

Scoville Heat Units: 30,000

Aji Rico seeds also available here.
