Dried Cascabel Chile

Cascabel chiles are small, round Mexican chillies known for their distinctive rattle — named after the Spanish word for “little bell.” When dried, they develop a glossy reddish-brown skin and a mild to medium heat. Their flavour is earthy and nutty, with subtle hints of tobacco, dried cherry, and wood smoke, making them a warm and aromatic addition to many dishes.

Cascabel chiles are ideal for enriching soups, stews, salsas, and sauces where a gentle warmth and depth of flavour are desired. They pair beautifully with tomatoes, beans, pork, and roasted vegetables.

Use them whole to infuse broths or grind them into spice blends. To rehydrate, simply soak in warm water for 15 minutes before blending into sauces or pastes.
