are there any mild/medium hot peppers that are also sweet?
I usually do not grow hot peppers as my family doesn't eat them for several reasons.
However, this year I planted a few - Tam Jalapeno (Baker Creek) and Anaheim (Baker Creek), and I loved ripe Tam Jalapeno- it had an intense sweetness along with heat, perfect for eating fresh in a lettuce salad to give it a spiciness. Didn't like Anaheim too mich as I couldn't detect any heat there, even in a ripe pepper - for some reason it tasted more sour to me than hot. The reason I picked the two peppers from Baker Creek collection is because they were labeled as 'mild hot', and I was looking for hot peppers to eat fresh. Does anyone can recommend more mild/medium hot peppers that also have sweetness like Tam Jalapeno (perhaps a bit hotter than Tam)? I would like to try something different next year. Thanks!
