This chilli pepper is obtained by crossing two varieties of extra strong chilli peppers. Be warned, it will not leave your tastebuds unscathed! Spices up sauces, chili con carne, pizzas and flavoured oils.
The red and round Wiri Wiri chilli is the cousin of the Cayenne chilli pepper from Guyana. It grows vertically, in a warm and moist climate at the edges of the tropical forest. It looks a bit like a cherry so is often called “cherry chilli”. Its strong flavour has aromas of tomatoes. Use sparingly. It will enliven your stews, soups and sauces.
Ancho chilli pepper is mild with fruity notes of liquorice. Ideal for sauces and stews. Adds an interesting flavour to vegetable mash, home-made gazpacho or grilled meat.
