Like so many other peppers from this region, the red ones can be dried to make decorative ristras. They are also great for roasting, making chiles rellenos, or for use in salsas. Slightly hotter than a jalapeno, it adds quite a kick to dishes and salsa, but not overwhelming heat. It’s often grown by home gardeners. Sandia peppers are typically associated with Hatch Chili Peppers, as they are grown in that region.
