Marconi vs. Corno di Toro
|
Marconi puts out a bigger pepper for me but I like the flavor of Corno di Toro better (isn't that ALWAYS the way????) I also think Corno is more prolific and "holds" the peppers better. We get a lot of wind and some varieties of pepper plants really take a beating. Corno's are close to the main stem and have a "thick" attachment stem. My husband likes to stuff these with a cream cheese mixed with some chopped jalapeno (and when I say stuffed, it really is he uses a pastry bag and nozzel and squirts cream cheese into them until they are full. He leaves the seeds in.) He then batters them and deep fries them part way and then freezes them in vacuum seal bags;
When he takes them out, he just pops them in the deep fryer frozen and finishs them until brown. Yum
