These beauties are in season now, but what the heck should you do with them?
You may have seen these lime green gems at the farmer’s market and wondered… what’s their deal? Are they spicy or sweet?
The answer is a little bit of both! Although they’re usually sweet, one out of every ten is a spicy little surprise.
These peppers are so fun to eat that you don’t need to overthink preparing them at all – just saute them until the skins start to blister, then sprinkle them with a little sea salt and THAT’S IT. Then enjoy popping them as you try to find the spicy ones.
