Peppadew sweet cherry peppers are the first new fruit to be discovered since
the Kiwi Fruit 26 years ago. They were found growing wild in South Africa's
northern province. When propagated in controlled conditions seeds flourished
and the cultivated plants produced a rich succulent red fruit, slightly
larger
than a cherry.
Peppadew is now a top selling product in Woolworths, South Africa's top food
retailer. The sole rights for the plant registered worldwide. Peppadews have
a crunchy texture, tasting sweet at first, before imparting a warming
after-flavour. A taste which is quite different from that of an ordinary
pepper. The preserv­ing liquid also makes an excellent marinade.
Peppadews can be eaten whole, chopped into salads, with pizzas, rice and
pasta, scrambled eggs and
omelettes. Even as a dessert. Peppadews' brilliant colour makes any dish
look even better. Rich in beta carotene and vitamin C, Peppadews, which are
are sup­plied in 375g jars, contain no cholesterol.
