The Kitchen Essential—A Sharp, Versatile Heat with Fermented Depth.

Overview

Our natural Red Cayenne packs a powerful heat at approximately 30,000 to 60,000 (SHUs). Our cayennes provide a classic, upfront sting that is recognized worldwide for its reliability. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex tart and earthy flavor! Our Red Cayenne ground pepper, crushed flakes, dry whole pods, and fermented mash are quite hot (spicy), so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is felt quickly, so start with a small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Red Cayenne is one of the most famous chili peppers in the world, valued for its ability to add heat without overpowering other ingredients. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Red Cayenne peppers have a distinctive appearance with a long, slender, and tapered shape and a vibrant red color. They are often characterized by their thin walls and smooth skin, giving them a sleek and recognizable appearance in the chili community.

The Experience

Red Cayennes are known to be a staple for professional chefs and home cooks alike! 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' cayennes. Use our premium quality chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! This pepper is perfect in moderate doses for a specific aromatic kick in stews, sauces, soups, and salsas. For a reliable, sharp kick, 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 fermented mash 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 earthy flavor of the Red Cayenne without the overwhelming heat.
