(Peppers, Buena Mulata)
A very rare, extremely productive, and stunning hot pepper being offered
exclusively through Baker Creek! William Woys Weaver introduced us to this
pepper from his grandfather's collection. His grandfather received the pepper
from African-American painter Horace Pippin in 1944. A chameleon-like cayenne
(Scoville units: 30,000 to 50,000) pepper that undergoes color changes during
ripening; from violet to pink, then orange changing to brown, and eventually to
a deep red. The long, round pods reach 6 to 7 inches in length and undergo a
unique flavor change as they ripen, with the reds being more sweet and meatier
than the violet. The stunning plants also make wonderful potted specimens. We
bought ours at Touch of Dutch Farm in Richland Center, Wisconsin. We could not
find specific nutritional information for this variety.

The
above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31):
'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every
tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the
earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that
has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all
that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
