Looking for Balance?

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 bright, sharp flavor of the Red Cayenne without the overwhelming heat.
