Cherry Pepper powder is made by grinding the small round fruits of this pepper, with a sweet, slightly spicy flavor.
The source pepper, Capsicum annuum, grows on a compact, bushy plant about 40-50 cm tall, well suited to pot cultivation too.
Sowing takes place between February and March in a heated seedbed, transplanting after the last spring frosts.
It loves sunny spots and well-drained soil; it produces abundant clusters of small round fruits throughout summer.
The fruits have a distinctive round, cherry-like shape, ripening from green to bright red, and must be well dried before grinding.
Avoid waterlogging and monitor for aphids and whitefly; good airflow helps prevent fungal issues.
The powder has a medium-low heat level, around 5,000-10,000 SHU, with sweet notes: ideal for sauces, pizzas and traditional Italian dishes.
Rich in capsaicin and vitamin C, typical of dried Capsicum annuum peppers.
