Chili peppers in all their nuances: whole, crushed, powdered, stranded, and mixed. A representation of the many ways we use spiciness.

What does the Complete Set include.

• Whole Chili: Ideal for classic Mexican cooking preparations such as chili, sauces and marinades. Perfect for infusions and slow cooking. Rehydrate it to release its flavor and use it to flavor oil.
• Chili Powder: perfect for quickly seasoning Mexican dishes such as tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas, adding authentic flavor with minimal effort, but ideal for flavoring all kinds of dishes: use it to give a spicy boost to soups, sauces, and meats without the need for preparation
• Crushed Mexican Chili: Crushed chili flakes add a pleasant texture to dishes. Perfect for topping pizzas, salads or grilled meat or pasta dishes such as aglio olio e peperoncino or arrabbiata.
• Cayenne pepper: With a heat level between 30,000 and 50,000 Scoville units, cayenne pepper is perfect for those who like strong flavors. It is great in soups, sauces, stews and grilled dishes. It stimulates metabolism, aids digestion and has anti-inflammatory effects, making it a beneficial addition to your diet.
• Aji Argentino: a blend of Capsicum Annum chilies essential in this country's culinary tradition for making Empanadas and Chimichurri sauce, chili con carne. With Aji Argentino, a salsa is prepared by mixing the Aji mixture with olive oil and a little vinegar.
• Ito Togarashi: a Japanese condiment made from thin strands of dried red chili peppers. The term “ito” means “thread” in Japanese, while “togarashi” refers to chili peppers. Thus, Ito Togarashi literally means “threads of chili peppers.” It is often seen on dishes such as ramen, soba, sushi, and tofu.
