Cseresznyepaprika

Cherry Pepper

Cseresznyepaprika

Cseresznyepaprika ("CH-RES-NEY PA-PRE-KA") is a variety of paprika that gets its name from the fact that it is shaped like a cseresznye, or cherry (though somewhat bigger). It is a very csípős (spicy) pepper, and is most often pickled, like the similarly-named almapaprika ("apple" pepper).
