How to use the finder

These notes keep the tool useful and simple, especially for people who know what they want to cook but not which pepper to choose.

Start with use first

If someone knows they want salsa, stuffing, drying, or sauce, that usually narrows the pepper list faster than heat alone.

Flavor matters more than people think

Two peppers with similar heat can feel totally different in food. Earthy poblanos, bright jalapeños, and fruity habaneros solve different kitchen problems.

Color can be practical too

Red, yellow, orange, green, and chocolate peppers can change how a final sauce, salsa, or roasted dish looks and tastes.

Use this as discovery, not a rulebook

The finder gives smart starting points. Grow conditions, ripeness, and individual varieties can still shift flavor and heat quite a bit.

Better pepper picks come from matching flavor, heat, and use instead of chasing heat alone.
