The serrano is a small, thin, chile that is five times hotter
than jalapenos. It has a thick flesh that does not
dry well, so it is best used fresh. It has an elongated
body that is green in color and matures to bright
red.
There is no need to peel or seed the
serrano pepper . Just cut it into tiny slices or mince
it to use for salsas and pico de gallo. The flavor
is very crisp and biting, with a delayed heat that
remains on your palate. |
