Piquín chili is a very spicy type of dried chili commonly used in Mexican cuisine to add flavor and spiciness to various dishes such as sauces, stews, marinades, and pickles. It is small, elongated in shape, and is characterized by its strong and spicy taste. Its size is deceiving; it is the opposite when it comes to its spiciness. We recommend using small quantities of this chili due to its high spiciness potency.
