The Guajillo Pepper is a staple in Mexican cuisine, valued for its unique flavor profile. These chilies are usually dried and possess a mild to medium heat level, renowned for their deep red color and glossy skin.
Often used in salsas, sauces, and marinades, Guajillo peppers complement various dishes, adding a subtle sweetness with hints of berry and tea-like flavors. They can be rehydrated and blended into smooth sauces or ground into chili powder.
Start the seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before your last frost date. When transplanting outdoors, ensure they are given plenty of sunlight and warm temperatures.
