Tangerine Tiger: Striped Beauty with Tropical Sweetness
The Tangerine Tiger pepper is a standout variety of the Capsicum baccatum species, known for its unique appearance and fruity flavor profile. It is an accidental cross between the Aji Tangerine and the Sugar Rush Peach Stripey, which gives it a remarkable balance between flavor, aesthetics, and moderate heat.
Mild to Medium Intensity and Flavor.
Degree of Pungency (Moderate): In contrast to the Super Hot peppers described previously, the Tangerine Tiger offers a milder and more accessible heat. Its pungency typically ranges between 20,000 and 30,000 Scoville Units (SHU), similar to a mild Jalapeño, although some phenotypes can reach around 30,000 SHU. This level of spiciness is ideal for fresh consumption and daily use.
Distinct Flavor: Its flavor profile is highly valued: it is sweet, fresh, and intensely fruity, with tropical notes of citrus and tangerine. A notable characteristic is the absence of the "soapy" flavor that some baccatum peppers can present, making it highly appreciated by foodies.
Appearance and Culinary Use.
Shape and Color: The fruits are elongated and hanging. What makes it a "spectacular" variety are its colors: they mature to a vivid orange tone with red stripes or streaks that make it a mandatory ornamental choice. Its skin is crunchy and the pulp is thick.
Use: Due to its sweet flavor and moderate heat, the Tangerine Tiger is extremely versatile. It is excellent for fresh consumption in salads or salsas, adding both flavor and color. It is perfect for colorful pickles, or to be stuffed with cheese and baked. It can also be used in fruit-based hot sauces, where its citrus profile is welcome.
The Tangerine Tiger is the ideal pepper for those seeking ornamental beauty in the garden and a pepper of high gastronomic value, combining tropical sweetness and controllable heat.
