Aji Amarillo Chili whole dried

In South America, the Aji Amarillo chillies are truely loved because of their extraordinary fruity taste. They are bright yellow-orange and have a unique delicious flavour, which is different from that of most other chillies.

The Aji Amarillo chili powder is ideal for fish, vegetables and white meat or as a basis for dips and sauces. Fresh, the Aji Amarillo is traditionally used for the South American fish specialty ceviche.

Either crunch the whole dried chillies straight into your cooking or rehydrate them first by soaking for about 10-20 minutes in very hot (90°C) water (not too much!). Then you can use them almost as fresh chillies for sauces, salsas and stews.
