Don't be fooled by the unassuming size of these pea-like 1/2" fruits - they pack a wallop! At 50,000 to 100,000 Scovilles, it's one hot pepper - some continue to rate this variety even higher on the heat scale. Prolific plants produce extremely hot peppers whose small size is very versatile in recipes.
