Murupi Amarela

Murupi Amarela is a very hot Capsicum chinense from Brazil. Its irregularly shaped, wrinkled pods are ivory colored when fully ripe. They develop a fine, tropical flavor and have a certain similarity to Aribibbi Gusano. In Brazil, the variety is often used as the basis for hot salsas or dried and processed into powder. Don’t let the pretty looks fool you, this chili has as much fire as a habanero.
