Description
Cascabel Chilli is a wonderful mexican chilli providing a nutty type flavour, deep colour of crimson red and low heat
Delicate in nature, best to use as the primary chilli, other mexican chillies can over power the flavours
Cascabel skin is very tough, for a thin walled chilli it is quite surprising how long it takes to soften, both soaking before and simmering, to find in flake crushed form even rarer but so welcome to make life easier
The whole form is also known as the rattle chilli, the large empty space created inside, dried so the seeds fall inside the chili becomes a baby rattle
The whole chilli is used par the stem, the flakes includes the seeds
Grown in Mexico
