Serrano pepper is a type of spicy chili native to Mexico and is widely used in Mexican cuisine and many other cuisines around the world. It is generally small, cylindrical, and pointed. It measures about 5-10 centimeters in length. When ripe, it changes from green to red, but it is usually consumed while still green. It has a spicy and fresh flavor, with spiciness levels that can vary widely. On the Scoville Heat Units (SHU) scale, its spiciness level generally ranges between 10,000 and 23,000 SHU, making it significantly spicier than jalapeño peppers.
