Description
The Thai Giant is a larger-podded variant of Thai chili producing long slender pods of 8-12 cm that ripen from green to red with the characteristic intense heat of 50,000-100,000 SHU and sharp pungent flavor typical of Thai varieties. Widely used in Thai and Southeast Asian cooking it is favored by gardeners seeking Thai chili flavor with a higher yield of larger pods suitable for both fresh use and drying.
