Kambuzi peppers - what a treat
 

I have been enjoying the small pumpkin shaped peppers called Kambuzi, which are from the central Malawi plateau in Southern Africa. The name means "little goat" peppers, as goats are known to munch on their leaves.

Very prolific. Nice citrusy flavor, and not too hot. I use them for relish eaten raw, and pickle them to get a nice hot pickle for the table. The Malawiis eat them raw and use them for fermented pepper sauce.

Let me know if you want seeds.

That looks really cool.

Edit: apparently Saltmarsh and I are not the only ones who think so:

These look and sound great! Would love to try, sending PM. Sue

Scot, how hot are they? More than an average jalapeno, or ?? Big burn or back of throat warming?

Moderate heat. More of the fast citrus burn than the slow heat - hotter than a jalapeno but I can easily nibble on it raw.

Scott, those look so pretty, too. I'd like to add them to the peppers I am thinking of growing next year in the front. Do you want a SASEor ??


Also, how big/bushy are your plants?

Just send me your address. The plants get pretty big - 5 feet tall and 3 feet wide.

Very nice plant.

Folks, I harvested some fresh seeds and will mail them in a few days to those who sent me emails as soon as they are properly dry.

thank you!

Just cleared more space for whoever sent me a pm that was rejected.

By the way, all my plants are from a single pepper plucked from a relish bowl at a banquet in Lilongwe.

I'd love to try them. PM on the way.

I would also like to give it a try if still available. PM sent.

14 seed packets went out today to those who responded. Enjoy!

Offer is closed.

Thanks Scott greatly appreciated.

Scott, if you get more seed of it to share, let me know. I'll try to make it worth your while. :)

I really would love to try it.

Received the seeds today. Thanks!

If anyone who received these seeds has an extra 5 seeds they'd like to trade, I'd love to. I am guessing the original poster has no more or of course I would be happy to trade with them. :) Please let me know. I have many interesting peppers!
