Tampico Puya Chili Pods, also known as Chile Puya Seco, are dried Mexican chiles known for their bright heat, fruity flavor, and rich red color.

Puya chiles are similar in appearance to guajillo chiles, but they are typically smaller, hotter, and fruitier. Their bold flavor makes them a great choice for adding spice and depth to salsas, sauces, marinades, meats, chicken, fish, pasta fillings, and even pizza toppings.

These dried chile pods can be toasted, soaked, diced, or blended into a smooth puree to bring authentic Mexican flavor and heat to your favorite recipes.

The 2 oz package is a convenient pantry size for home cooking and traditional Mexican dishes.

Preparation Tip: Rinse lightly if needed. To rehydrate, soak in warm water for about 10 minutes or add directly to recipes that will simmer. For deeper flavor and more heat, lightly toast on a comal or griddle for 3–4 minutes, being careful not to burn.
