Aji Amarillo Pepper Plant
10.00 $
Description
Ají Amarillo is a yellow chili pepper (turning orange when ripe) widely cultivated in the South American Andes region, including Peru and Bolivia.
In Spanish, Ají means chili pepper, and Amarillo means yellow. It's not just spicy; it's characterized by a vibrant, fruity aroma reminiscent of tropical fruits and a deep, rich flavor, making it an indispensable star ingredient and flavor base for Peruvian cuisine.
It has a tropical fragrance that evokes mangoes and passion fruit, with a unique sweetness and umami that spreads after the initial spiciness.
Spice Level: The Scoville Heat Units (SHU) are around 10,000 SHU. Compared to Japanese Taka no Tsume (40,000-50,000 SHU), its spiciness is mild (medium), and it's used like paprika to add color and flavor to dishes.
Locally, it's used fresh in salads or dried (called Ají Mirasol). However, the most common form is a paste made by boiling, removing the skin and seeds, and then pureeing it (Yellow Hot Pepper Paste).
