Tabasco Pepper: The Fermentation Classic
The Tabasco Pepper (Capsicum frutescens) is a legendary variety, world-famous as the main ingredient in the iconic Tabasco Sauce. Native to Mexico and extensively grown in Louisiana, USA, this pepper is unique for its upright-growing fruits.
Intensity and Classification
The fresh Tabasco pepper has a heat level classified as "Hot", typically ranging between 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Units (SHU). This intensity puts it on par with Ají Amarillo, being significantly spicier than Jalapeño.
Aroma, Shape, and Cooking
Tabasco is a small, juicy fruit that turns bright red when ripe. Its flavor is slightly smoky and sharp, but its main strength lies in its fermentation profile. It is ideal for vinegar-based hot sauces and seasonings that require a robust flavor, but it can also be used fresh in salads and preserves.
Versatility and Legacy
The Tabasco pepper is a valuable ingredient on its own, whether pickled or dried. It is the ideal pepper for those seeking a vintage heat and a flavor that forms the base of one of the world's most famous spicy sauces.
