Madame Jeanette (Capsicum chinense) is a chili pepper originally from Suriname. The plant is fairly small and dislikes cool growing sites. It will grow indoors. The fruits are shaped like small bell peppers but with Habanero like heat. The peppers ripen to reddish-yellow but they are larger and more symmetrical than Habaneros. When raw, the taste is of a hot burning, without any sweetness or fruitiness. It may be related to the Suriname Red (as this pepper is also known as 'Suriname Yellow'). The plant is very prolific. The image on this page is probably an adjuma/adjoema pepper. Madam Jeanettes are longer and wrinkled (they look like "madams").
