Amarillo Chili Pepper is considered part of the Peruvian “holy trinity” of cuisine, along with garlic and red onion. This spicy, fruity chili pepper imparts hints of passionfruit and mango. It is the most important ingredient in Peruvian cooking. Aji amarillo is used in many classic Peruvian dishes, such as causa rellena and papa a la huancaína, as well as aji de gallina (Peruvian spicy creamed chicken). Aji amarillo is also used in many sauces, where it adds a bright complex flavor as well as its distinctive yellow/orange color. It goes stupendously with almost everything.
