can someone ID these peppers?
having zero tolerance for hot (I can't even handle a pepperocini!), I have ***no*** idea what variety these peppers are. a friend gave them to me to include in my homemade salsa (husband's batch, not mine!), and I'd like to know what I'm adding if hubs/guests ask. thanks!

It could also be Feherozon sweet pepper, which is a Hungarian pepper variety. But I think there are ones that are same color and shape that are hot also. Peppers can cross easily so mix ups can happen, too.
When in doubt, cut a sliver from the bottom/blossom end and taste. That would be the sweetest/mildest portion.
