Habanero Chilies Details

Habaneros are small, orange, lantern-shaped & very spicy chilies with a bit of sweetness. They’re among the spiciest of the most commonly used chile varieties.

Habaneros are an important ingredient in several Caribbean & Central American cuisines, but can also be used to add heat to all sorts of dishes.

Caution: These chilies are extremely hot.

Wear gloves while handling chilies. Wash hands thoroughly before touching eyes & sensitive tissue.
In the event of inhalation, move to open air to clear lungs.
In the event of burning eyes, flush with eye wash. For burning skin, wash thoroughly with soap & water.
If irritation persists, seek medical aid.

Storage

Store habanero chilies in your refrigerator. For longer term storage they can be frozen (general freezing tips). Frozen habaneros will have a softer texture when thawed. Habaneros can also be dehydrated - cut them in half lengthwise and remove the seeds before loading them into a dehydrator.

Recipes & Tips

Fresh habaneros can be used similarly to any other fresh chile pepper as long as their very significant heat is taken into account.

Habaneros are often paired with fish, citrus (especially lemon or lime), or pork. They’re an excellent addition to almost any dish you want to add heat to.
