Ingredients: Dried Chile de Arbol Peppers
Taste & Aroma: Hot, spicy, and intense, Arbol Chilies bring bold heat and a vibrant, earthy flavor to any dish.
Uses: Perfect for adding a fiery kick, Arbol Chilies are a staple in Mexican cuisine and beyond. Ideal for sauces, salsas, chili, and soups, they are also frequently used in pickling spice blends to add depth and heat. We use this in our Chili Powder #2
Try them:
• Toasted and blended into homemade salsa or hot sauce.
• Simmered in soups, stews, or chili for deep, rich heat.
• Added whole to pickling brines for a spicy, flavorful twist.
• Crushed and sprinkled over tacos, enchiladas, or roasted vegetables.
• Infused into oils to drizzle over pizza, pasta, or grilled meats.
Heat Level: 15,000-30,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) – enough to bring the heat, but balanced with a smoky, earthy undertone.
For deeper flavor, toast them lightly before using, or rehydrate them in hot water for blending into sauces. These chilies are essential for those who love bold, intense heat in their cooking!
