Chile de agua

/CHEE-leh deh AH-gwah/
[Spanish] plural Chiles de agua

"Chilli of water." It is not certain whether they are so named because they need a lot of water when they are growing or because you need a lot of water to drink when you are eating them. They are certainly quite hot. These green ripening to red, mid-size chillis are used fresh rather than dried.
