Sweet Cherry Peppers (also called Pimento Peppers or Cherry Bombs when hot) are round, small peppers with sweet, mild flavor. Rating 100-500 SHU, these peppers look like large cherries and pack sweet, slightly tangy punch. Commonly found pickled and stuffed with cheese or meat, they’re popular appetizer and salad ingredient. The thick walls hold up well to pickling and stuffing. When left to fully ripen to bright red, they develop rich, fruity sweetness. Different from hot cherry peppers (which can reach 5,000 SHU).
