Pequin Peppers are highly sought after in Mexico, and often used to add an extra kick of flavor to dishes like salsa and enchiladas. They have a citrusy and nutty flavor, with a similar heat level to Cayenne peppers.
We offer both Pequin Pepper Flakes and Pequin Pepper Powder for those who prefer a fine powder for their recipes.

Sonoran Spice Pequin Peppers have a medium heat level ranging from 30.000-60,000 SHU. This sits them above the Jalapeño, but milder than the Habanero.
