Japones Chile Pepper, Whole

Although native to Mexico, these hot peppers are cultivated in Asia and are popular in many Asian dishes for their simplistic heat. Also known as the Hontaka, Santaka, or Oriental style chili peppers, the Japones pepper is a popular ingredient in many Asian, Latin, and Caribbean dishes. Often referred to as ‘fire bringers’, they are used in Schezuan and Hunan cuisine to add a kick of heat without overpowering the existing flavors, making for a complex and tasteful combination.
