Whole Roasted Piquillo Peppers

These ones have been roasted, peeled, and kept whole, making them incredibly easy to use. They have a lovely tender texture and a deep, sweet flavour with just a hint of smokiness. Because they are whole, they are the ideal pepper for stuffing, but they are also delicious when sliced into salads, sandwiches, or blended into rich sauces.

  • Finely chop and stir into hummus or dips for extra flavour.

Are piquillo peppers hot or sweet?

Piquillo peppers are not hot. They are known for their distinctively sweet and tangy flavour, making them very mild and pleasant to eat.

What is the difference between piquillo peppers and roasted red peppers?

While both are sweet roasted peppers, piquillo peppers are a specific variety from Spain. They are smaller, triangular, have a thinner flesh, and a more complex, tangy taste than the common roasted bell pepper.

Why are piquillo peppers so special?

Their special status comes from their traditional growing region in Northern Spain, their unique small shape which is perfect for stuffing, and the customary process of roasting them, which gives them their signature flavour.

Ingredients:

Piquillo Peppers, water, sugar, salt, firming agent: calcium chloride. and acidifier: citric acid.
