Piquillo Chili for Gourmet Cooking and International Trade

Piquillo chilies are a small, triangular pepper variety known for their vibrant red color and mild, sweet flavor with very little heat. They have a smooth, glossy skin and tender flesh that becomes especially aromatic when roasted. Traditionally grown in Spain, piquillo chilies are most often roasted, peeled, and preserved, making them perfect for stuffing, salads, tapas, sauces, and gourmet dishes. Their natural sweetness, smoky notes from roasting, and striking appearance make them a favorite in Mediterranean and fine-dining cuisine
