Cherry peppers are a very beautiful pod type pepper resembling the shape
of a round fleshy cherry and measuring about 1 3/4 inch in diameter. The
hotness ranges from moderately mild to medium hot. One may find the cherry
pepper labelled as the Hungarian cherry pepper, since they are popular in
Hungarian dishes. Cherry peppers are an ideal size for pickling or
brining, and they also make for an excellent garnish on a dish. They
shouldn’t be thought of as merely good for pickling or for decoration,
since they are quite tasty. Flowers are quite similar to those of other
chillies. This chilli is only known in cultivation.
