Guajillo Dried Chile Pepper by Tampico

Dried guajillo chile pepper

The Guajillo pepper pronounced [gwah-HEE-yoh] is a shiny, thick, leathery, red orange-red chile with bland to moderate amounts of heat. Guajillo are the most commonly grown chiles in Mexico, and are sold whole, dried. The Guajillo chile has a green tea flavor with berry tones and sweet heat. It's lengthened shape thins out in to a point, sometimes being slightly curved. Since Guajillo peppers have a tough skin they have to be soaked longer than other chiles before being used. Guajillos can get ground or hydrated into a thin paste or red flavorful sauce. They are usually used to make salsa for tamales, salsas, pastes, butters, chile sauces, rubs to flavor all kinds of meats such as chicken; soups and stews.

Tips:
Wipe the Guajillo peppers with a most towel to remove soil or dust before toasting. Before soaking and blending, remove the chiles from the bag; remove the seeds, stems, and much of the veins as you can. Then slice the peppers and place in a bowl. You can store guajillos for up to six months or more, by storing them in an air tight container in a cool dry place. Guajillos can be substituted with New Mexico Chiles, Cascabels or California Chiles.

Chile guajillo seco.
Los Chiles Guajillo son chiles anaranjados, brillantes, gruesos,correosos con suave a moderadas cantidades de picor.

Como los guajillos tienen una piel muy dura, tienen que dejarse remojar mas tiempo que otros chiles antes de usarse.

Tips:
Limpie los chiles Guajillo con una servilleta para remover la suciedad o el polvo antes de tostar. Antes de remojar y moler, retire las semillas, tallos y gran parte de las venas que pueda. Despues rebane los chiles y pongalos en un platon. Para que los chiles de duren seis meses o mas, guardelos en un recipiente hermetico en un lugar fresco y seco.

I live in Maine so these chiles are always difficult to come by. I use them for all sorts of recipes so I was very happy to see them on this site. They arrived perfectly, the package doesn't come with very many chiles so if you need more than 3-4 then I would buy more than 1 package.
Pros
  • Very well sealed
Cons
  • Doesn't come with many chiles.
