The first truly new and unique fruit to be discovered since the kiwi in the 1970's, Peppadew is not only rich in flavor but also has great nutritional benefits. Whole sweet piquante peppers from South Africa's northern provinces are blended with a secret recipe that makes every juicy mouthful simply unforgettable. Quite unlike anything we've ever eaten, this unusually tasty treat is delicious served with almost anything. We especially love it with a simple goat cheese salad. Available in mild and hot for those who like their peppers with a little more heat.

    These peppers add a zing to sandwiches and are also good in tuna salad - as a side condiment for steaks, pork or chicken - great in pastas - just a really versatile - great taste additive to most all I fix.

    These peppers are so good, I don't like run out. They stay crisp in liquid and I save the brine to use with other peppers until a new batch comes in. I like them plain just out of the jar as a snack.

    I first experienced Peppadew's with a friend who was serving wonderful turkey sandwiches for lunch. I've been hooked ever since. I love the sweet/spicy taste and the beautiful presentation they make on the plate when serving something as simple as a sandwich. Beats the kosher!

    I have only tasted the hot version. To me, it is a little hotter than jalapeno peppers. Also, they are packed in a solution that is just too sweet for my tastes. But they are a unique item.

    I had these on a sandwich at a restaurant and had to have them. Was so thrilled to find them here. I'm stocking up so I don't run out. The "HOT" ones aren't really very hot, but the mild ones are fabulous, too. We eat them with cheese, chop them onto sandwiches and into salads.

    We could readily purchase peppadew in Namibia, Africa. When we lived in Namibia, I used them on pizzas, grilled cheese sandwiches, sloppy joes, chilli, any thing that needed a little more flavor. I miss a lot about Africa, and these festive little fruits are on the top of the list.

    Describe Yourself:

    Great as a snack either plain or stuffed with cream cheese. The hot ones are not too hot (about the heat level of a medium salsa). I just recently purchased these so I have not had a chance to use them in many recipies yet, but I certainly plan to do so. I will definitely purchase these again.

    The first time I had these was at a really nice resturant. They didn't look like much, but boy, were they flavorful! We had them stuffed with goat cheese. I asked the owner of the resturant what they were called and where to get them. I couldn't find them at any of the local stores, so went online and found them here. Get the hot ones - they have more flavor and they are not too hot. They don't look like much, but are very tasy!

    You won't find this product in most stores. The Peppadew Pepper has a sweet yet spicy and tangy flavor that will enhance sandwiches and salads. They would also work great with crackers and spreads. I am very excited to use the Peppadews in the future.
