Guajillo - Ground - 2oz

Guajillo is one of the most used dried chiles in Mexican cooking — mild enough to use generously, complex enough to anchor an entire sauce. Long and tapered in dried form, it is ground here for immediate versatility. Its flavor is fruity and tangy with a clean, moderate heat that makes it as useful in everyday cooking as it is in traditional preparations like mole, birria, and enchilada sauce. Flavor Profile Fruity and tangy with notes of dried cranberry and mild smoke. Clean, moderate heat with a long, slightly sweet finish. More complexity than heat. Recommended Uses – Build the base of enchilada sauce, mole, or chile colorado – Use in dry rubs for grilled or braised beef, lamb, or pork – Stir into tomato-based sauces, soups, and braising liquids – Blend with cumin and garlic for a versatile taco seasoning – Add to spiced beans, lentils, or roasted vegetables Cooking Tips Toast guajillo briefly in a dry pan before using to deepen the flavor and reduce any residual bitterness. It combines beautifully with ancho for a layered, complex chile base. Details Origin: India. Net weight: 2 oz. Packaged in a resealable pouch.
