Alejandro Texas Salsa

The fruits of our Alejandro labors. Making salsa using peppers from our pepper farm! Very satisfying and very good! We chopped up Serrano, Costa Rican, and Hot Big Guy peppers. Picked up some Roma tomatoes, green onions, and red onions at a local produce store called "Fruit King" which is downtown Corpus Christi.

First Pepper Harvest at Alejandro

Our first harvest on September 1st at Alejandro pepper farm was modest but fruitful. We chopped them up for the freezer for a future use.
Hot Big Guy Peppers
 Hot Big Guys were a little smaller than expected but very good to the taste.
Sweat Heat Peppers
 The Sweet Heat peppers had a great sweet mild taste. Our pepper plants are producing lots of fruit.
Mariachi Peppers
 The Mariachi Peppers are fun because of their orange and yellow colors they produce.
Serrano Peppers
 Serrano Peppers are plentiful!
Costa Rican Peppers
Costa Rican peppers are large and full of flavor.
