Recently my wife and I were watching Unwrapped on the food network. Papa John's founder was discussing a popular ingredient; the Peperoncini. Soon after introduction, Papa John's was using %40 percent of the world's Peperoncini's and caused a shortage.
We bought a jar of Mezzetta Greek Golden Peperoncin's and they are fantastic. The flavor is sweeter and more complex than a regular JalapeƱo and it brings just the right amount of heat.
You can't go wrong throwing these on a Pizza, however I have put them on bologna sandwiches, quesadillas and more.
Honestly, anything that could use hot sauce or a satisfying pickle like crunch will benefit from Peperoncini's.
If you have ever been to the Olive Garden, the pepper that comes with the all you can eat salad is a similar Italian sweet pepper.
They are cheap at Costco, so go buy some.
