Description

Fresh Green Chili is a vibrant, spicy pepper commonly used in various cuisines worldwide. These chilies are harvested while still green, offering a crisp texture and a sharp, fiery flavor that ranges from mildly hot to intensely spicy, depending on the variety (e.g., jalapeño, serrano, or Thai green chili). They are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and capsaicin, which gives them their signature heat. Perfect for salsas, curries, stir-fries, and garnishes, fresh green chilies add a bold kick to any dish.
