Ingredient Focus: Habaneros

The habanero is an ancient pepper, and there’s evidence of it being cultivated as far back as 8,500 years ago! While the habanero originates from Peru, it’s best known for its use in Mexican cuisine, specifically in food from the Yucatan region. It’s no coincidence that this region also uses a lot of fruit in its food!

The habanero was once considered the hottest pepper, with a scoville rating of in between 100,000 and 350,000, but the habanero is a deeply misunderstood chile! Once you get past the heat that it’s most famous for, the habanero offers a complex array of delicious flavors and invigorating aromas. With notes ranging from tropically fruity to robustly floral, habaneros have the potential to pair with anything from sweet fruit chutneys to custom mustard recipes. With the habanero pepper’s natural hint of smoke, it is also an excellent partner for pork and chicken, and a great heat source for barbecue rubs and sauces!
