Description:
The Korean Beauty Cucumber pepper looks, feels, and even tastes sweet like a cucumber, but with a little bit of a kick to it. Coming from the Korean peninsula, this hybrid pepper is known for its crunchy texture used mostly in fresh foods like salads and salsas and is high in Vitamin C.
Korean Beauty pepper plants grow up to 3 ft. tall and produce good yields of 7-8” long peppers that almost look like jalapenos. These peppers change from a spouting green to their dark, “cucumber” color as they reach maturity, and have smooth, shiny skin.
While Korean Beauty Cucumber peppers are sweet, they boast a stronger kick than most green peppers. They are traditionally eaten with fresh foods by dipping them into Korean sauces like gochujang and doenjang, but these peppers are also excellent for drying and used as pepper powder to use in other Korean cuisines!
