Description:
One of the most popular Cayenne pepper varieties in the Southeast Asia region, the Goat Horn peppers boast a wonderfully sweet and spicy taste that goes well in almost any cuisine! Originally from Thailand, this pepper reaches a moderate heat level of up to 50,000 SHUs, guaranteed to fry your taste buds!
Goat Horn pepper plants grow well in most climates and reach up to 3 ft. tall. A prolific variety, this pepper gets its namesake from its shape, which resembles 4-6” long goat horns. Fruits have smooth and shiny surfaces and ripen from dark green to a bright red color at maturity. These characteristics make Goat Horn peppers a revered ornamental variety that spruces up any garden or patio.
You’ll notice the instantly sweet taste of these peppers before the long-lasting heat starts to kick in. Just like most Cayennes, these peppers have a wide variety of uses! With their medium-thick walls, Goat Horn peppers work well for drying and homemade powder. You can also cook these peppers or use them to spice up any food dish you like!
