Dried Habanero Chiles

Habaneros are HOT––100 times hotter than a jalapeño! Habanero means "from Havana," although there is evidence suggesting its origins in South America date back to 6500 B.C. Habaneros are a popular ingredient in Jamaican and Yucatan cuisines. Dried Habaneros pack a concentrated flavor so use them sparingly. Wear gloves and use caution when handling this chile! Heat is 10+ on the Scoville heat scale.
