Habanero - spicy dishes guaranteed
Sometimes spiciness is what brings that certain something to our dishes. You like it hot and love chili spices? Then we recommend our gourmet jar with the especially spicy Habaneros, which we have processed into powder. This is one of the hottest chili varieties in the world. Habanero means "coming from Havana". Now, you might assume that habaneros come from Cuba, but that's probably not the case. Instead, the chili probably originates from Yucatán, which is found to the west of Cuba. Today, habanero continues to be grown in the Caribbean, but also in Costa Rica, Panama, Belize and in the U.S. states of California, Texas and Idaho.
Habanero - less is more
To give you an idea of how spicy habanero really is, here are a few comparisons. The heat comes from the alkaloid capsaicin, which is measured in Scoville. A conventional sweet bell pepper has just 10 on the Scoville scale. A hot pepper is already around 500, the well-known Tabasco sauce around 5,000 and the pure cayenne pepper up to 50,000 Scoville. The Habanero is still far away from this, but it brings a value of up to 577,000 on the Scoville scale. Our Habaneros have a Scoville value between 220,000 and 350,000, which is also very hot. However, it must always be said that the Scoville value can vary depending on the cultivation. If you refine your dishes with our Habanero spice, less is definitely more.
Habanero - fruity spicy seasoning
Our Habanero spice is not only hot, but also fruity. It goes well with meat, soups, sauces, stews, salsas, with curry and even with desserts, because the combination of sweet and spicy is also becoming more and more popular. You get our Habaneros in a gourmet jar, which means you always have the overview. 22 g filling weight should last you some time, as long as you season carefully, which we would advise you to do.
