Very good hot and spicy
Now living in America's Siberia, Wisconsin, I've long missed these peppers I grew up with finding everwhere growing wild in South Texas where I grew up. They are hot but also have a unique sort of.....smoky flavor that adds both warmth and unique flavors to many dishes and thanks to Morel.....I now own 2 pounds of these tiny flaming nuggets
The Dried Chiltepin Chilis from Morel are absolutely fabulous.
Review for Dried Chiltepin from Morel Distribution
These dried Chiltepin chilis are absolutely top-notch! The taste is phenomenal—spicy yet full of rich, fruity complexity. They have that signature tingly heat that makes them a true joy in the chili family. The color is vibrant, and the shape is perfect, showing the care that went into drying them just right.
I truly believe these are the best Chiltepin chilis on the market. They bring authentic heat and depth to Mexican cooking, elevating any dish with their bold flavor. Whether you’re making salsa or adding a spicy kick to your favorite recipes, these chilis deliver every time. Highly recommend!
