Jalapeños are initially harvested green, then ripen to red as they mature.
• Green Jalapeños: They offer a spicy kick and refreshing taste, often used in marinades, sauces, or served fresh alongside various dishes.
• Red Jalapeños: They possess a sweeter flavor and more complex aroma, commonly used in pickles, dried and ground into chili powder.
Jalapeño processing methods vary based on their type and intended use.
