Pepper Jalapeno Tam represents the ideal choice for discerning gardeners who prioritize authentic jalapeño flavor while preferring notably mild heat levels. This distinguished heirloom variety delivers the classic taste profile expected from premium jalapeños without the intensity that limits culinary applications, making it exceptionally versatile for diverse palates and cooking methods. The vigorous plants produce abundant dark green pods measuring 3 by 1 inch, distinguished by impressively thick walls and blunt ends that provide structural integrity throughout harvest and preparation. The substantial flesh thickness transforms these peppers into exceptional candidates for whole-stuffing applications—creating elegant poppers with superior texture and presentation. The robust construction ensures these peppers maintain their integrity through roasting, sautéing, and extended cooking without collapsing or losing their distinctive character. Tam jalapeños excel across multiple culinary applications: blend into fresh salsas for balanced flavor, pickle for tangy condiments with extended shelf life, or dry and grind into homemade chili powder for nuanced depth. This proven producer consistently rewards gardeners with reliable yields throughout the growing season, thriving in home gardens and delivering dependable performance year after year. The heirloom genetics allow seed saving for perpetual cultivation of this exceptional variety. David's Garden Seeds® provides 25 non-GMO seeds per packet, offering serious gardeners the authentic character, culinary flexibility, and proven reliability that Jalapeno Tam has delivered for generations.
