Overview
Golden Greek is the pepperoncini pepper, which also goes by Tasty Golden Greek or Golden Greek Pepperoncini. The mildly hot pods are 4 inches by 1 inch, slightly tapered with a blunt nose, thin-walled and light greenish-yellow, which is exactly the pepper you find pickled in Greek salads and on sandwiches. It is quick, at about 60 days from transplant. Pick the pods while still pale yellow-green for pickling; the thin walls take up brine well.
