Maestros Aceituneros Piquillo Peppers 350g

Authentic wood-roasted Spanish peppers – sweet, smoky, and succulent.

Bring a taste of Northern Spain to your kitchen with Maestros Aceituneros Piquillo Peppers. Hand-picked and traditionally wood-roasted over an open flame, these iconic "little beak" peppers are prized for their deep red colour and thick, succulent walls. They are carefully hand-peeled to preserve their natural juices, ensuring a rich, concentrated flavour and a velvety mouthfeel in every jar.

Expect a complex, sweet profile with a distinctive smoky finish and minimal to little heat. Their robust texture makes them incredibly versatile; they are firm enough to be stuffed but tender enough to melt into sauces. Because they are packed in their own juices, they retain a vibrant aroma that sets them apart from standard roasted peppers.

For a classic Spanish tapas dish, stuff them with creamy goat's cheese, salted cod, or seasoned tuna. They also add a beautiful smoky depth when roughly chopped into a prawn paella, stirred through a rich pasta sauce, or layered onto a steak sandwich with aioli. For a simple treat, serve them at room temperature with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and crusty bread.
