Red Iracema Biquinho Pepper (Capsicum chinense)
Both decorative and delicious, this variety of chilli comes from Brazil. Forming small peppers (2-3 cm) in the shape of a drop of water, it is also very prolific. Crunchy and slightly spicy, its exceptional flavor is to be discovered raw, especially because it loses its flavor when cooked. In fruit salad or try the traditional Brazilian recipe.
