New Mild Chili Varieties Launched in Hualien
Posted on 2025-07-17 17:16:13
Hualien has introduced two new chili pepper varieties that are less spicy and
easier to eat in summer.

The medium-spicy "You-Xin" (友辛) and the mild "You-Xiang" (友香) were
developed by the Hualien Agricultural Research Station and the World
Vegetable Center.

The new varieties were developed as farmers had complained that summer-grown
chili peppers were too hot.

These new types grow well in hot weather, have thick flesh, and are good for
cooking and peeling.

They also resist disease and give higher yields.

"You-Xin" can produce over 42 tons per hectare, and "You-Xiang" nearly 36
tons.

At a press event, local chefs showed off creative dishes using the new
peppers.
