AJI ORGANIC CHILLI POWDER - N.1

Organic Chili Pepper Ajì No. 1 | 12g Vial
If you're looking for a chili pepper with a gentle character, Ajì No. 1 is just what you need! With its golden yellow hue and tropical fragrance, it takes you straight to the Peruvian Andes, where it is considered a true culinary treasure.

Origin: Ajì is a chili pepper that grows wild in the Peruvian mountains, but it can also be found in Bolivia and Ecuador.

Aromas and Pairings: Forget the usual aggressive chili peppers—Ajì is delicate, perfect for enhancing dishes without overpowering them. Its fruity aroma with floral notes, ginger, and raisins pairs wonderfully with white meats, fish, vegetables, savory pies, and even legume soups. In Peru, they even add it to fish gazpacho... why not give it a try?

Spiciness? Don’t worry, it won’t bite! With approximately 500 SHU, Ajì is the perfect chili for those who want vibrant color and fragrance without having to reach for a glass of milk.

Health Benefits: Besides making your dishes tastier, Ajì is rich in various health-boosting micronutrients, such as Vitamin A, which helps maintain healthy eyes, hair, and skin. Most importantly, it contains Vitamin C, which not only combats free radicals but also strengthens the immune system and lowers the risk of cancer by inhibiting the synthesis of carcinogenic substances. Additionally, recent scientific studies confirm that consuming chili peppers at least four times a week can cut the risk of heart attack in half.

Tasty Idea? Try making oat and honey bars with a pinch of Ajì for a gourmet snack! Here’s the recipe link.

Production Method: During the production process, special cold-extraction techniques were used to remove moisture while preserving the chili pepper’s characteristic aromas as much as possible.
