Chimayó

These varieties, or "land races," called 'Chimayo' and 'Española,' had adapted to particular environments and are still planted today in the same fields they were grown in centuries ago; they constitute a small but distinct part of the tons of pods produced each year in New Mexico. Chimayó chiles are unpredictable. A single plant might produce some chiles as long as six or seven inches and many more that are shorter; a few might be straight and skinny, and some will be bent oddly into curlicues. Makes great chile powder PI: 593474. Scoville units: 500-2500
