Peperoncini are like bell peppers and chili peppers. They are also known as Tuscan peppers, sweet Italian peppers and golden Greek peppers. The term peperoncini is used for hotter varieties of chili peppers.

Peperoni should not be confused with pepperoni, the English name for a typical Italian spicy salami.

The Greek varieties are sweeter and less bitter than the Italian varieties grown in Tuscany. Peperoncini are mild with a slight heat to them and are commonly pickled and sold packaged in jars.
