タイ唐辛子

The heat hits fast but fades into this subtle fruity sweetness that I didn’t expect—perfect for stirring into coconut curry. I’ve been tossing a couple whole into my soups and the flavor comes through way cleaner than the ground stuff I used before.

These little peppers pack a serious punch for their size. I tossed a few into a coconut curry and the fruity heat came through beautifully without overwhelming the dish, and they've kept their color and aroma in my pantry for weeks.

I was surprised how much flavor these tiny chiles packed into my soup—just two gave it a deep, fruity warmth that lasted. The heat is intense but not overwhelming once you get the balance right. Perfect for infusing oil, too.
