The dried Chile de Arbol is a mildly spicy pepper that looks a bit like a mini-cayenne pepper. It's a pepper with a short and powerful kick, plus it has a hint of nuttiness, almost smoky in flavor, along with a light grassy undertone. Its strong, spicy taste instantly adds a lot of flavor to any dish. Arbol peppers are slender and curved, which is why they're also called Pico de Pajaro (bird's beak) or Cola de Rata (rat's tail) in Mexico.
'De Arbol' is Spanish for 'tree-like,' because the plant it grows on resembles a tree. This medium-hot pepper is a widely used ingredient in Mexican cuisine. Chile de Arbol is great for flavoring salsas, sauces, and stir-fries.
Preparation
– First, toast the dried peppers in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. This helps release their essential oils and brings out more flavor. Next, rehydrate the dried peppers with hot water. Let them soak in hot water for 15-20 minutes, then slice or chop them to your desired size.
– You can also grind the dried peppers into flakes or powder.
Starting from € 4,25

To keep dried chili peppers fresh for a long time, store them in an airtight container in your pantry or, even better, in the freezer. Avoid exposing them to air, moisture, light, and heat, as this can cause them to discolor, mold, and lose flavor.
Dried peppers last a long time, but for the best flavor and heat, try to use them within a year. Click here for more info on storing and freezing dried chili peppers.
