Collection: Mild Heat 0 - 5,000 SHU

Mild peppers contain little to no heat and are appreciated for their sweet, grassy, or earthy flavors and crisp textures rather than spiciness. Bell peppers (0 SHU) are entirely heatless and high in vitamin C, making them perfect for fresh salads, stir-fries, and stuffing.

Anaheim (500–2,500 SHU) and Poblano (1,000–2,000 SHU) are typical in Southwestern and Mexican cuisine. Poblanos, when dried, become ancho chilies, a staple in mole sauces. These peppers are also commonly roasted, grilled, or used in salsas to provide flavor depth without overwhelming heat, making them a favorite for families and milder palates.
