Origin: Mexico Volumes and net weights: 50 ml / 35 g / 1.23 oz €254.29/kg Ingredients: Capsicum annuum Intensity on the Scoville scale: 4 — pepper described as "hot" (approx. 5,000 SHU) Description: Also known as Mirasol, the Guajillo pepper is an iconic variety originating from the state of Zacatecas, Mexico. Highly prized in traditional Mexican cuisine, it is one of the most used chiles, especially in sauces, marinades (adobos) and fragrant broths. This large, dark red pepper, which can reach up to 15 cm in length, is harvested ripe and then slowly dried until its skin becomes smooth, thin and glossy. It develops a moderate, warm heat accompanied by a complex aromatic palette: dried red fruits, wild berries, with woody and herbal notes evoking pine needles and black tea. On our simplified Scoville scale its intensity is 4 out of 10: a perfect balance of sweetness and character that enhances dishes without overpowering them. Usage tips: This is a very versatile pepper that you can use almost everywhere. It is perfect with red or white meats, especially poultry. Ideal for spicing up your sauces, flavoring oils, marinades for prawns or crayfish, and your dressings — particularly with honey to gently lift your salads. It elevates pastas, fried rice, soups, tagines, and vegetables in general. Also very interesting with sun-dried tomatoes or marinated peppers. In sweet preparations, it pairs well with cocoa and fruits, notably apple, fig and orange.
