Green Carolina Reaper Pepper Flakes 1kg. / 2.2lb.

The Green Carolina Reaper pepper is the unripe version of the red Carolina Reaper, is expected to have a slightly different flavor profile compared to its mature counterpart. Before processing, the Green Carolina Reaper chili peppers typically have a wrinkled and bumpy exterior, similar to other chili pepper varieties. They are usually smaller in size compared to milder peppers.

Magic Plant Farms' natural Green Carolina Reaper flakes are a “little milder" than the Red, but it still packs a powerful punch at ~ 1,500,000 (SHUs). Our spicy reapers have the classic "creeper heat". The burn intensifies with time. So those few seconds prior to that - these fiery green pepper flakes actually have more vegetal and grassier flavor compared to their ripe counterparts. Our natural Green Carolina Reaper ground pepper, crushed flakes and dry whole pods are insanely hot (spicy) so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat intensifies after eating so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

Green Carolina Reapers are known to be the world's hottest pepper! So why eat it?

Like most chili peppers, in certain amounts the sensation can be quite pleasing and causes the release of endorphins in the brain, which make you feel pleasure. Studies suggest that Capsaicin may have certain health benefits, such as pain relief, improved digestion, and potential metabolism-boosting effects. Eat with caution but enjoy the complex flavor provided by Magic Plant Farms' reapers. Use our premium quality dry chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! This pepper is perfect in small doses for a specific aromatic kick in stews, sauces, soups, and salsas. For the brave of heart, just add more directly on top!

• Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our dry flakes or ground Green Carolina Reaper peppers with our milder peppers like our Low Heat Dried Peppers ( Chipotle Morita) or our sweet dried peppers ( Green Ancho Peppers,  Red Cascabel Pepper,  Red Poblano Mulato Pepper,  Trinidad Pimento (Trini Pemiento),  Peppadew Peppers / Sweety Drop Peppers).  This will still give you the fruity sweet flavor of the Green Carolina Reaper without the overwhelming heat.
