Add authentic Mexican flavour to your dishes with Arbol Chillies, also known as Bird’s Beak or Rat’s Tail for their slim, curvy shape. These bright red, dried cayenne-type chillies pack a blistering heat with a clean, grassy flavour. Perfect for spicing up salsas, soups, or even infusing vinegar and oil, they offer a heat scale of 8. For a milder kick, simply crack open the pod and remove the seeds.
