;D,,,you do your research throughly Vilander ;D..how many kebabs did you get through? ;)
Yes you are right, if they are "pointy" they are not Jalapenos.
I suspect that most of the green chillies that are in "catering" packs are Jalapenos..for some reason. Not so long ago in Asda I saw their catering size packs of pizza toppings were on sale..and yes they were using Jalapenos too. I only noticed when I was umming and arring if I should take one, but I would not get through that quantity on my own.
But then again, are all sliced stuff that are sold as Jalapenos really the true type or do they mix in some others that are similar?
Those pointy green chillies I've always seen sold whole in jars.
Once pickled is there really that much flavour difference? I think it is more texture and meatiness that I can differentiate in that stage.
I'll be suprised if Kebab places would take their chillies seriously..as long as its fit the purpose and does the job more like it..and what ever is cheapest..unless you go for more upgrade market kebabs... ;D Ours are just cheap shops.
