Native to Hungary as its name suggests, Hungarian wax peppers bring a vibrant pop of yellow to any dish and tickle the palate with their mildly spicy kick. This pepper variety excels in terms of versatility, proving as delightful in a fresh salad as it is when roasted or cooked down in a hearty stew.
In terms of heat, the Hungarian wax pepper sits comfortably at the lower end of the Scoville scale, comparable to jalapeños. However, do bear in mind to remove the seeds and veins if you prefer a milder flavor, as they carry most of the pepper's heat.
