I love peppers of all kinds and use a lot of peppers in most of my meals. Aji Cachucha Purple Splotched pepper is one of my new favorites! This pepper is not hot, it just smells and looks like it. In fact, on a hot scale of 1 to 10, it’s only a 1. I have done a lot of cooking and garnishing with it. I have also dehydrated them and made pepper flakes. Using these as stuffing peppers creates the ultimate meal with flavorful hints in every bite. Starting out green, it eventually turns purple on top and finally, all red. What a sight to see! Prolific plants, 3 feet tall. If you like tasty cooking with no heat, this is it!

I was disappointed that mines only went from green to red, without any purple. Also they look much smaller than on this picture (half inch big). There’s no way they can be used as a stuffing pepper at such a small size. But the taste is fine.

Hi Mimi. Did all of your plants do the same thing? How many plants did you have. Were your plants in shade, part shade or full sun?

I love watching this pepper change colors! Very delish, but not hot at all…get it for the unique flavor!
