About Peppers, jalapeno, raw
Jalapenos are the workhorse of the American hot pepper world - widely available, moderately hot, and useful in an enormous range of applications. Raw, the heat sits in the seeds and white pith; removing both tones it down considerably. The nutritional numbers are modest across the board: low calorie, minimal fat, a modest carb count, and reasonable fiber for a small pepper. Slice them fresh onto tacos and nachos, pickle them in vinegar brine for a mellower heat, or smoke and dry them to make chipotle peppers. Few fresh chiles are as flexible or well-understood by American home cooks.
