cherry peppers

Small stuffed peppers

Cherry peppers are small, round peppers resembling cherries in shape and size.

They range from mild to moderately hot and are typically bright red when ripe, though green varieties exist.

Often pickled or stuffed with cheese or meat, they appear on antipasto platters and in sandwiches: I'll have the Italian sub with cherry peppers.
