Description	Aconcagua is a sweet Italian frying pepper producing impressively large pods — up to 11 inches long — that ripen from pale green to red with a rich, sweet flavor and no heat. Named after the highest peak in the Americas, this variety towers over other sweet peppers in both size and taste. Outstanding for frying, grilling, roasting, and fresh eating. The thin walls make it perfect for sautéing in olive oil with garlic. A favorite among Italian cooking enthusiasts and farmers market growers.
