I think I first tasted the long crimson pepper at the Union Square Greenmarket in New York in 2017. Every summer since, I've noticed it pop up as a special on menus, which has made me wonder more than once: Is this the new ramp? Slender like cayennes but sweet like bells, they're often twisted, twirled or hooked. You might compare them to Cubanelles or Lombardos, but this particular pepper — the Jimmy Nardello — is a distinct variety. Its seeds are among those preserved by the nonprofit Seed Savers Exchange.

A train and a vehicle carrying five people collided in Gary, Indiana on Wednesday evening.
