Nardello Sweet Pepper
Nardello is one of the most beloved sweet peppers among serious home cooks and chefs — an Italian heirloom from Basilicata with long, slender, wrinkled fruits that ripen to a brilliant candy-red with a flavor that is intensely sweet, fruity, and complex with almost no heat whatsoever. When fried in olive oil until blistered and soft, they become transcendent — a simple preparation that showcases their extraordinary sweetness. Once you grow Nardello, it becomes a garden non-negotiable.
