Jalapeño: The Essential Mexican Culinary Classic
The Jalapeño (Capsicum annuum) is undoubtedly the most famous Mexican pepper in the world. Native to Xalapa, Mexico, this pepper is a pillar of traditional cuisine and a heat benchmark for millions.
Intensity and Classification
Unlike the super hot peppers, the Jalapeño has a moderate to medium heat, typically ranging from 2,500 to 8,000 Scoville Units (SHU). This level of heat is pleasant and controllable, making it the ideal pepper to introduce customers to the world of spices.
Aroma, Shape, and Cooking
The fruit is fleshy with thick walls and a conical shape. It is usually harvested green, although it reaches its fruitiest flavor when ripe and red. Its generous pulp makes it perfect for stuffing (jalapeño poppers), slicing for nachos and tacos, or pickling. When dried and smoked, it becomes the legendary "Chipotle".
Versatility and Popularity
Jalapeño is known for its extreme versatility and productivity. It is an indispensable ingredient in Mexican dishes, from burritos to salsas, and is the perfect pepper for daily use to add a touch of heat without overpowering the dish.
