PERUVIAN YELLOW PEPPER

Aji Amarillo in its dried form is called Aji Mirasol. Used as a whole pepper or grounded it has like its fresh counterpart numerous uses in the Peruvian kitchen. While Aji Mirasol is used to prepare the typical Peruvian dishes as mentioned above, it's also a great spice to season any sauce or soup giving it a really unique flavor.

The best thing about it is that the drying process makes it lightweight and gives it a long shelf life, keeping its piquancy for many long months. Before using, this chili pepper needs to be seeded and deveined, toasted, and then rehydrated in hot water and blanched three times, changing the water each time, to reduce its heat.

What Does It Taste Like?

^{Aji amarillo is notably hot without searing my senses. It's got a light, slightly citrusy maybe, flavor to go with its moderate levels of fire.}

_{This ingredient gives a wonderful earthy flavor to soups and stews such as capchi(a stew made with potatoes, cheese, milk, and herbs), or ocopa, among many others. Some people also deep-fry the whole chili until golden, and serve it over beans or other dishes like tacu tacu or chupes (Andean chowders), eating them with seeds and all. You may be surprised by how much you like the fried, crunchy, spicy combination, but unless you have a tongue of steel, if you’re ever served a whole aji mirasol we recommend you eat it with caution.}
