What Are Cherry Peppers?
Named for their cherry-like appearance, Cherry Peppers are the lovable small, round, red peppers you find featured on antipasto platters, charcuterie plates, salad bars and more. These peppers are actually in the chili pepper family (Capsicum annuum) and come in a range of spiciness—from 2,500 to 5,000 on the Scoville scale. For reference, Cherry Peppers are milder than jalapeño peppers and with a sweeter profile. Cherry Peppers are spicier than the classic bell pepper. Their firm skin and round shape make them a great pepper for stuffing and pickling.
Note: Cherry Peppers are sometimes mistaken for pimentos because of their similar look and usages. Pimentos are actually heart shaped peppers, in contrast to the spherical shape of Cherry Peppers. Pimentos are also sweeter with less heat.
Types Of Cherry Peppers
Cherry Peppers come in a few different varieties with different levels of spiciness. One of the hottest Cherry Peppers is the Cherry Bomb boasting an incredible heat and a deep red hue. The Cherry Stuffer is a sturdy variety with minimal heat making them excellent for stuffing, hence their name.
