Description
Espelette pepper provides the flavour and warmth of a hot chili, without the spice. It is ranked a 4 on the Scoville scale, no hotter than black pepper. It has an orangy-red colour.
Uses
Used as a finishing touch from appetizers to desserts, it adds a pleasant warmth and a fruity, distinctively smoky note, in addition to a lovely orangy-red colour.
Distinctives attributes
Before being crushed into powder, Espelette pepper is predried on mesh tables for at least 15 days. After their stems are removed by hand, the peppers are oven-dried, then processed into powder. Commercialization depends on an agreement delivered for each batch. Our Espelette pepper is the only one produced according to the IFS* criteria from start to finish. The territory approved for PDO certification includes ten municipalities around the town of Espelette, and enjoys a subtropical microclimate characterized by abundant rains, mild temperatures and southerly winds.
