Aji Crystal Chilli Peppers
The aji cristal chilli originates from Chile. It grows rather large and clearly ramified plants with long leaves. It develops numerous elongated, red chillies with juicy flesh that can grow up to 8cm long and 2.5cm wide. They have a pleasant fruity-sweet flavour with a slightly acidic note, typical of the Capsicum baccatum variety. Aji cristal chilies are well-suited for pickling or grilling with garlic oil, particularly when they are still in their yellowish-green phase, as this is when the flavour should be at its strongest. However, they also add an incomparable flavour to fresh salsas or simmering sauces.
