AJI CEREZA CHILI PEPPERS arrived today and will be added to our website this weekend so keep watching & place your order. These are beautiful peppers that look just like bing cherries. Chad and I don't eat anything hot so can't taste test them!
Aji Cereza peppers are a variety most commonly found in the Peruvian jungle. One of the smaller varieties of chile pepper, they are cherry shaped and a deep red color. They rank just below habanero chilies on many pepper heat scales, making them a good substitution if you’re looking to reduce the heat level of a habanero based recipe by only a little bit.
These dried Aji Cereza chilies are certified organic.

Perfect for sauces, salsas and Mexican, Central American & South American cooking when you want to bring the heat.
