Guajillo chili is the dried form of the mirasol chili, literally meaning “looking at the sun” in Spanish because of how the fruits of this chili grow upwards towards the sun. It is the second most commonly used dried chili in the Mexican cuisine. It has medium heat with a slightly sweet, tangy, crispy flavor with hints of sour berries.
Together with ancho and pasilla, guajillo chilis forms the holy trinity of chili in Mexican cooking. Guajillo is regularly used in sauces, salsas, dry rubs, marinades and Mexican mole sauces also in North African Harissa.
Our Guajillo chili is sourced from the state of Zacatecas, south of the city of Fresnillo, from a farm operated by Omar and his family. Here the dry cool climate is perfectly suited to grow many of the famous Mexican chilis with full sunlight, high temperatures and perfect rainfall in rainy season.
