Premium Habanero Ground Pepper - 4 oz

Just the perfect kick with a good flavor!!

Such an amazing spice!! I easily put it in a shaker and now add lots of flavor to any dish!!

I ordered this because I had run out of dried diced habanero. I actually prefer this ground version much better because it allows for a fine tuning of the heat. I will definitely re-order when this runs out. The secret is to find an unused spice shaker and drop this in it. Then you have total control over spicy or not spicy.

When I got this & opened the bag, I immediate was impressed how fresh it was! No additives & visually of great quality. I use this for my homemade chili oil of garlic & fresh green chili (whichever kind is on sale); & I get to control the level of spiciness with this Habanero ground to meet the palette of each family member. I can't take insults that my chili oil is not hot enough, or too spicy to eat... in comes this reliable Habanero, enabling my cooking skills. It's a great buy.

I love the flavor of habanero and was so happy when i found out i could order it in powder form. It's a great addition to my spice cabinet and has a nice kick to it.

So. I've been experimenting with a variety of beef jerky recipes. Out of the variety of jerky I make, the only complaint I've heard a number of times is that the "hot" jerky was not spicy enough. Chili flakes, black pepper, tabasco - That was about the extent of the spicy. I love the taste of habanero but I was a little concerned that most people would think it's too hot. I'll tell you, it's not. 1 heaping tablespoon in my 3 cup base kicked the jerky into high gear. Something I wasn't expecting was that this particular product (3rd I've tried) added a crazy amazing fruity and mellow flavor. You taste that first then the heat hits the back of your throat and you're hooked. Can't stop eating it. Everyone that's tried it has loved the heat. Honestly, it's not all that hot and only lingers for about 5-6 minutes but it gives the flavor and kick I've been looking for.Great product The Spice way. I'd pay a bit extra for a fancy container. Just saying.

This powder was less spicy and more flavorful than I initially thought it would be and I've found that to be a wonderful thing. Yes, this is habanero, and yes it makes your mouth burn, but the flavor delivered alongside the spice is very welcome to the recipes I add it to. The burn is also longer-lasting instead of super-intense; a way better dining experience. This was originally part of a flavored salt blend that I gave to co-workers at the holidays. It was a hit. Since then, I've used it in a bunch of chocolate-based recipes and its added a great kick. I'm currently working my way through a whiskey and habanero flavored fudge that is delicious. This is going to become a staple in my kitchen. UPDATE: I made fudge, brownies, and chocolate cake with between a teaspoon and tablespoon of this powder. I found best results when I let the powder bloom in the liquid portions of the recipe in the fridge overnight. I will be looking for other ways to combine this with chocolate.

This habanero powder is a good blend of heat and flavor. It is ground fine enough to release the heat and flavor nicely. Habanero peppers also have a bit of a smoky flavor which I really enjoy. I put it into an empty chili pepper bottle to make it easier to shake out on my food. It will probably lose potency faster in the bottle than in the zip lock bag it comes in, but I'll probably use it up before then. One warning... If you are not used to habanero peppers, you should be aware that there is a delayed reaction to the heat. Use it sparingly at first and don't add more for several minutes after your first bite. It will "sneak up" on you!!!
