The Best No-Heat and Low-Heat Peppers for Big Flavour

A pepper does not have to hurt to be interesting. Some of the best cooking peppers are mild because they let aroma, sweetness, and texture come forward.

The Aroma Peppers

Habanada Peppers give you habanero fragrance without the burn. Aji Dulce Puerto Rico and Aji Cachucha are classic seasoning peppers for sofrito-style cooking.

The Snack and Pickle Peppers

Sweet Drop Biquinho Pepper and Black Biquinho are small, sweet, and perfect for pickling. Fushimi Japanese Pepper is excellent blistered whole.

The Everyday Sweet Peppers

Bananarama, Ajvarski Pepper, and Dragonfly Bell Pepper are useful when you want volume, roasting quality, and sweetness.
