Chilli Mexican Guajillo Whole Dried

Origin: Mexico

Meet the Guajillo chilli — one of Mexico’s most popular and versatile dried chillies! It’s known for its deep red colour, smooth skin, and mild-to-medium heat, making it perfect for adding flavour without overpowering your dish.

Flavour Profile:
Guajillo chillies bring a sweet, tangy, and slightly smoky taste with subtle notes of berries and green tea. They’re milder than many other chillies, so you get rich depth without intense heat.

Common Uses:

• Blend into sauces, salsas, or marinades

• Add to soups, stews, or Mexican moles

• Toast, soak, and blend for authentic chilli pastes

• Crush or grind for rubs and seasoning mixes

 Tip: Lightly toast your Guajillo chillies before using to bring out their natural oils and aroma — it makes all the difference!
