| Notes | The Isabela Island Habanero pepper plant, scientifically known as Capsicum chinense ‘Isabela Island,’ is a remarkable chili pepper variety originating from the Galapagos Islands, specifically Isabela Island. This unique pepper has gained recognition for its distinct characteristics and vibrant flavour profile. The Isabela Island Habanero pepper typically grows to a size of about 1 to 2 inches, with wrinkled, lantern-like pods that ripen from green to a vibrant red. What makes this pepper truly exceptional is its exceptional heat level, packing a fiery punch that can rival other well-known habanero varieties. It’s important to note that the heat of habanero peppers, including the Isabela Island Habanero, can vary, but they are generally considered quite hot, often exceeding 250,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). In terms of flavour, this habanero offers a unique combination of fruity and citrusy notes, accompanied by a searing heat that can provide a thrilling culinary experience. Due to its intense spiciness and distinctive flavor, the Isabela Island Habanero pepper is often used sparingly in salsas, hot sauces, marinades, and spicy dishes to add both heat and a burst of exotic taste. Cultivating these plants requires a warm and sunny environment, well-drained soil, and careful attention to watering and care. For those who appreciate intense heat and unique flavour, the Isabela Island Habanero pepper plant is a coveted addition to their garden and culinary repertoire. |
