Juma! Yellow powder is made by grinding this all-Italian variety, born by chance among Jalapearl plants, with a sweet flavor reminiscent of bell pepper.
The source pepper, Capsicum annuum, grows on a medium-sized plant shaped like a small tree, up to 1 meter tall, very leafy with bright green foliage.
Seeds for fruit production are started between February and March, transplanting after the last frosts.
The plant favors stable temperatures above 12°C and regular watering without waterlogging; it also grows well in medium-sized pots, easy to grow at home.
The fairly large fruits (up to 7 cm long) resemble a small bell pepper in shape and turn bright yellow at full ripeness; they must be fully dried before grinding.
Waterlogging that favors root rot must be avoided; good drainage prevents the main issues of this generally easy-to-grow variety.
Juma! Yellow powder has a low heat level, around 20,000 SHU, with a sweet flavor reminiscent of bell pepper: perfect for those looking for a gentle touch of heat in sauces and seasonings.
Rich in capsaicin in modest amounts and carotenoids that give it its characteristic yellow color.
