Description

The dried Tepin peppers, also known as Bird Chile or Chiltepin, are very small spicy peppers. Chiltepin are powerful in flavor with a slight acidity. The pepper comes from Mexico, where they describe the spiciness as "Arrebato," meaning fast or explosive. This is because the peppers are intensely spicy, but the heat also dissipates quickly. Tepin peppers are widely used in Mexican cuisine, but are also added to stews, sauces and soups in Spanish, Indian and Asian cuisine.

Preparation
- Fry the dried chilies in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. This will release the essential oils and impart more flavor. Then soak the dried chilies with hot water. Soak them in hot water for 15/20 minutes and then cut/chop into desired size.
- Grind the dried chilies into flakes/flakes or powder.
