Guava Wood Smoked Jalapeno Flakes

Smoking Chillies to help preserve also creates wonderful flavours

Traditionally Jalapenos are smoked with pecan shells to create Chipotles, however smoking with a different wood does not produce a bad copy, just a different flavour, while you can never call jalapenos smoked with anything but pecans chipotles, it does not stop Jalapenos being smoked with different wood

Guava wood from Costa Rica is such smokey flavour 

Everything you would expect, a little sweet citrus kick from red jalapenos with a delightful smokey finish

Enjoy something different, limited stocks - when its gone it gone

Guava Wood Smoked Jalapeno Flakes - Quick Reference

• What are guava wood smoked Jalapeño flakes?: Ripe red Jalapeños smoke-dried over guava wood in Costa Rica and cut into flakes.
• Principal flavour: A distinctive guava-wood smoke rather than the pecan-shell smoke used for traditional Chipotle.
• Supporting notes: Sweet citrus character from the fully ripened red Jalapeño.
• Heat level: Low to medium, based on the Jalapeño chilli base.
• Common uses: Barbecue sauces, marinades, beans, meat rubs, tomato sauces and dishes needing a different style of smoke.
• Pairs well with: Pork, chicken, beef, tomato, garlic, lime, beans and tropical fruit.
• How to use: Stir directly into moist cooking or soak briefly and blend into a smoky paste.
• Comparison: Not a Chipotle: the chilli base is Jalapeño, but the different smoking wood creates a separate flavour identity.
• Availability: Produced in limited quantities, so supply may vary.
