Aji Amarillos have a subtle, lemony aroma and distinctive, fruity flavor. Use this chile pepper in salsas, sauces and stews. When using dried chiles, you can opt to toast them first for added flavor and re-hydrate them by soaking in hot tap water for about 20 minutes. Don’t soak any longer or they can become bitter. We also carry ground Aji Amarillos.
In the United States, these chiles are sometimes referred to as "yellow chiles". |
