Peruvian Yellow chilies

This is the first time that we have successfully grown more than two of the Peruvian Yellow chilies. In the past the plants only grew small, gave one or two chilies and then died. With this little bunch we were able to make Causa Rellena, which is a smashed potato salad, filled with tuna, it was delicious. We also made Fish Tacos. In the past we were able to make Ceviche and Lomo saltado with the few yellow chilies we got.


This time we have added drip irrigation to the roots and now on the winter months, we are covering the plant so that the night cold does not kill it.

The seeds we collected are now growing new plants. They are still keep them in pots, and once they are big enough, we'll move them to the garden next to the original one.
