Gogosari Peppers
In Romania, there's a traditional pepper/tomato dish called "Zacuska" or "Zacusca". It is made from gogosari peppers and must have the correct pepper to be authentic. Last year I read a post on another forum by Scott ....... who was trying to make authentic zacuska for his college friend Mihael. I was in the middle of a trade with Geza who is in Hungary and with Geza being geographically close, I ask him if he knew of a pepper called gogosari. He replied that he did and I asked him to send me some seed as part of our trade. I gave half of the seed to Scott so he could make authentic zacuska for his friend.
I planted this pepper this year and this is the result. It is a wonderful pepper that tastes good fresh or cooked. Thick walled and sweet, it will add to any of your recipes. Thought you folks would like to see one. I can't find this pepper at any of the usual seed selling sites. Did I save seeds??? I always save seeds. Ted
