Afal Cariad Sweet Pepper

£2.80 12 in stock Afal Cariad (Love Apple) Sweet Pepper (organic) A great variety, known as ‘Leibesapfel’ in it’s native Germany. It’s equally suited to the climate here in Wales, as it’s early, so will ripen even in a dull, wet year, then carry on producing into late autumn. Fruits are squat and ribbed with thick and juicy flesh. The taste is sweet, mild and fruity, so can be eaten raw in salads or cooked in a variety of dishes, as you would with any sweet / bell pepper. My favourite? Romesco sauce…. roasted peppers whizzed up with toasted almonds, garlic, smoked paprika, olive oil and red wine vinegar. Great on fish or a tray of roasted veg." Approx. 12 seeds.
