PEPPER DRIED ASIAN CHILI

A dried and extremely hot pepper with a small body and long form. Clocking in at 50,000 to 70,000 Scoville heat units, Asian chiles are right above cayenne peppers when it comes to hotness and can pack a mean punch. They are red in color and used primarily in Szechuan or Hunan dishes such as Kung Pao Chicken. They’re also popular to use as a flavoring that is removed prior to serving (unless you want your meal extra hot). The heat from these peppers also makes them terrific infusion chilies for oils, vodkas, and other beverages.
