Jalapeños Instant Pot Recipes

If you love a little kick in your recipes, growing jalapeños in your garden or taking advantage of the harvest season, this roundup will give you a ton of ideas that will put a little heat in your menu.

 

A LITTLE ABOUT JALAPEÑOS

A jalapeño gets its heat from capsaicin, a chemical compound concentrated in the white pithy ribs of a pepper. It is a medium-sized hot pepper when compared to other chili peppers, measuring an average of 2-3.5 inches in length but growing up to 6 inches long or longer. It’s popular for its mild heat level, which averages around 5,000 Scoville Heat Units. That is noticeably spicy, but not too spicy.

Jalapeños have the perfect amount of spice for someone introducing their pallets to spicier foods. When cooking with them, you can core and remove the seeds from the jalapeño to reduce the overall heat. You can also dice them small to spread the heat through a salsa or slice into rings to concentrate the heat into a bite, such as on nachos. They can be incorporated into almost anything, from soups to bread. Remember when working with peppers to be careful since the oils can get on your fingers and cause discomfort if you touch your eyes.

There are some surprising benefits from these little green peppers. They contain vitamins C, A, and K, as well as B6 and folate. They also provide dietary fiber, and the minerals magnesium, potassium, iron, copper, and manganese. The chemical responsible for the heat also helps speed up metabolism and reduce hunger, relieve pain, aid digestion, and even lower blood pressure in some cases.
