AJIPANCAPOW-20

Description:

This Aji Panca chile has medium thick flesh and a smoky berry flavor giving it a very aromatic taste. Aji (ah hee) is simply the Peruvian or South American term for chile pepper. Aji Panca is the second most common Aji variety in Peru and is grown mainly near the coast. Aji Panca measures approximately 500 Scoville Heat Units, giving it a mild but persistent heat. The pods are about 3 to 5 inches long and reddish-brown in color. The berry-like flavor goes well in stews and sauces and with fish and rice dishes.

Ingredient Statement:

Aji Panca Chile Powder.

Warm, fragrant and slightly sweet, Aji Panca chile powder will give a little kick to the flavor of chili, salsa, dip, stir-fry, rice dishes and chutneys. Try Aji Panca powder in muffins, with smoky ribs, marinades and grilled chicken. You can substitute Aji Panca powder for Poblano powder.
