Magic Plant Orange / Yellow Fatalii Pepper Whole Dried Pods

The African Heirloom—Searing Citrus Heat with a Bright Lemon Aroma.

Overview

Our natural Fatalii peppers pack a powerful punch, averaging between 125,000 and 325,000 (SHUs). Unlike the "creeper heat" of other super-hots, the Fatalii provides an immediate, tongue-searing sting that is highly respected by hot pepper enthusiasts. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex citrusy and lemon-like flavor! Our Fatalii ground pepper, crushed flakes, and dry whole pods are very hot (spicy), so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is felt immediately, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Fatalii is a member of the Chinense family originally from Central and Southern Africa, resulting in its unique tropical heat level. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Fatalii peppers have a distinctive appearance with a wrinkled, thin-walled texture and a vibrant yellow or orange color. They are often characterized by their slender, pointed shape, giving them a sharp and recognizable appearance in the chili community.

The Experience

Fatalii peppers are known to be a favorite among citrus-based hot sauce makers! 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' Fataliis. 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!

Too Hot?

Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our dry Fatalii pods 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 bright citrus flavor of the Fatalii without the overwhelming heat.
