Carrot synch

This morning I was doing my seed saving for 2025.  My favorite new pepper for this year is called the Bulgarian Carrot pepper.  Just as I was writing carrot on my ziploc bag, the live Polka Jammer radio played a song called Carrot Polka, which I have never heard before. 

Bulgarian Carrot

Also known as “Shipkas,” these compact heirloom chiles bear heavy sets of early maturing, 3 inch glossy orange pods shaped like little carrots. Bulgarian Carrot chiles are both hot and fruity and really delicious in fresh salsas, for scrumptious sauce, or any dish or sauce that calls for both heat and lots of flavor. Their thicker, crunchy walls are perfect for hot pickled peppers. Carrot chiles rank between Jalapenos and Cayennes in heat levels.
