Chile Pepper Fun Fact - The Satan's Kiss Chile Pepper

Chile Pepper Fun Fact - The Satan's Kiss Chile Pepper  

Now that's a pretty scary name... 

Although they are called Satan’s Kiss peppers, they look like such cuties! Also called Baccio Ciliegia Piccante, these little poppers are the size of a golf ball and have a sweet taste with a spicy kick to them. How about a plate of them next to some of our cherry tomatoes? We love these heirloom peppers when stuffed and grilled, but you should definitely try stuffing them with anchovies and mozzarella then grilling them as they do in Italy. Satan's Kiss is a medium-hot pepper that will be the perfect manageable heat for a party.  

They are known as Ciliegia Piccante (Spicy Cherry) or Baccio de Satana (Kiss of Satan) in Italy and range from 40,000 - 50,000+ SHU's, not too hot for having such a scary name.
