Citron

Description

A small, compact chinense that buries itself in bright yellow pods — dark green at first, then a clean vivid lemon-yellow, and a great many of them on a plant that takes up very little room.

The flavour earns the name. It is citrus through and through: lemon and lime, faintly sour, fresh rather than tropical, with a habanero heat behind it that is present without being punishing. Slice one and the smell fills the kitchen.

The flesh is thin, so it dries quickly and completely — this is one of the best varieties we know for a bright, sharp powder or for flakes. And because the plant stays naturally small and bushy, it is an excellent candidate for a bonchi or simply for a modest pot on a windowsill.

Some chilies are worth tasting before you grow them. → Explore the Vault
