Description
The NuMex Jalamundo is a jalapeño-type pepper developed at New Mexico State University bred to produce large smooth-skinned pods with consistent heat around 10,000-17,000 SHU and a classic smoky jalapeño flavor. Larger than a standard jalapeño it ripens from glossy green to red and is suitable for fresh use pickling stuffing roasting and processing into chipotles. Its reliable performance and improved yields make it a popular commercial variety for growers seeking an enhanced jalapeño experience.
