Originally from Ecuador, the pure lemon yellow fruits have a distinct wrinkled texture with tender skin and a spicy aroma. The heat is similar to a cayenne type but with a very different, unique flavour. The immature fruits, which are green in colour, can be used when a more delicate flavour is required. Best used fresh. Fruits typically 8-10cm in length.
