PEPPERS

15. Piquillo

Alternate Names: Little beak pepper

Characteristics: This mild, sweet pepper hails from northern Spain and features a smokey, tart flavor that's ideal for sandwiches and sauces, and also thrives as a compliment to meat and cheese. You'll often find them jarred in your grocer's gourmet section. As they mature, they grow from green to red. They measure three to four inches long and are slightly curved at the end, resembling a little beak.

Scoville heat units: 500 to 1,000
