Best flavour chillii
Best flavour chilli to use for the Carne con chille Colorado recipes or the English version of Chilli con Carne. It has a imperceptible level of spice on the palet, with heath that slowly builds up creating the feeling of comfort food. Best way to use it is to hydrate the chillies in boiling water for 15 minutes ( before that remove the seeds and stem and don't rub your face) After the chillies are hydrated, move only the chillies in the blender with a cup with fresh hot water, blend until smooth, drain it through a sieve. (If you use the water in which the chillies have been hydrating the sauce will be bitter - that's why I prefer not to use it). Now the guajillo chilli sauce can be used for cooking. For Chilli con Carne at 500g of mince use 5 guajillo chillies; for Beef stew at 2pounds of beef chuck I use 8 guajillo chillies; I useally add this paste after I brown the meat. Spiceontheweb is the best supplier for these chillies and also Mexican Oregano; that among all other spices and sauces that they supply; always reliable and always with good dates for the products.

Quality "Mexican-Dried"
I have used these Chillies before and bought from, Spices on the Web. Pliable and perfect quality, no mud noticed on skins!

Great product
High quality , great flavour, great service!

Colourful mild but tasty
They produce a mild tasty tomato-red sauce. Combine with hotter chillies , eg a couple De Arbols for a lip-smacking but not screaming hot experience. Perfect with grilled meat.

Guajillo chillies (dried)
Lovely. As we speak,they are sitting in my 'fridge blending with other ingredients to make mexican chorizo sausages. The smell is amazing when I open the 'fridge door. Can't wait.
