Jimmy Nardello Italian

Legendary Italian frying pepper — thin-walled, sweet, impossibly prolific

$5.00

Brought to the U.S. in 1887 by the Nardello family from Basilicata, Italy, this is the frying pepper that changed how serious cooks think about peppers. Long, wrinkled 6–8" fruit with thin walls and zero bitterness — fried in olive oil they are absolutely extraordinary. Slow Food USA Ark of Taste. Vigorous plants produce massive yields. Not just a pepper, it's a flavor revelation.
