Product Description

The Pequin Pepper also called "Piquin" or " Bird Pepper", is a tiny pepper that starts off as a green color but turns into a darker red when it is in its dried state. Pequin peppers are very small, measuring  roughly 1/2 to 3/4 inch (2 cm) in length and 1/4 inch (1 cm) wide, and oval or oblong in shape but don't let their small size fool you - these peppers pack a big punch of heat. With only one pepper, you can spice up any of your favorite Mexican dishes. In its dried form, chiles can keep for months in a dry, cool place. Our Pequin Peppers are 100% natural, which means it includes NO preservatives, additives, or chemicals to ensure real freshness.
