Sliced Jalapenos in Brine

Fontinella Sliced Green Jalapenos 3kg are a convenient way to add a deliciously tangy, spicy kick to everything from loaded nachos and homemade burgers to pizzas, sandwiches and Mexican-inspired dishes. These ready-sliced green jalapeño peppers offer a satisfying balance of chilli heat and sharp, savoury flavour, making them a versatile ingredient for everyday cooking and busy foodservice kitchens.

With their distinctive green colour, tender texture and lively chilli flavour, sliced jalapeños are particularly good for cutting through rich ingredients such as melted cheese, pulled pork and creamy sauces.

They're equally delicious chopped into salsa, stirred through mayonnaise or used to give a little heat to homemade pizza.

How spicy are sliced green jalapeños?

Jalapeños are generally considered medium-heat chillies, typically measuring around 2,500–8,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Their heat is noticeable without being as intense as hotter varieties such as habanero or Scotch bonnet. The exact heat varies between peppers, and preserved jalapeños can taste milder than fresh ones because of their preparation.

What is the difference between green jalapeños and red jalapeños?

Green and red jalapeños are generally the same type of chilli harvested at different stages of ripeness. Green jalapeños are picked before fully ripening and tend to have a fresher, slightly grassy flavour, while red jalapeños are fully ripe and often develop a sweeter, fruitier character. Both can be used in similar recipes, although their flavours differ slightly.

Can sliced jalapeños be added to sauces and dressings?

Absolutely. Sliced green jalapeños are excellent for adding heat and tanginess to homemade sauces, dips and dressings. Finely chop them into mayonnaise for a spicy burger sauce, blend them with sour cream and lime juice for a creamy taco dressing, or stir them through tomato salsa. Start with a small quantity and adjust to taste.
