AAA - Chocolate Habanero Congo Black Pepper Powder

Magic Plant Chocolate Habanero Congo Black Pepper Powder

Earthy Depth and Intense Heat—The Smoky Power of the Congo Black.

Overview

Our natural Chocolate Habanero (Congo Black) packs a powerful heat at 300,000 to 425,000 (SHUs). These peppers are famous for their unique, deep earthy burn. The heat is more intense than a standard red habanero and lingers longer on the palate. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex smoky and rich chocolatey flavor! Our Chocolate Habanero ground powder is very hot (spicy), so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is deep and persistent, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Chocolate Habanero is a Caribbean favorite, resulting in its higher heat level and distinctive color. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Chocolate Habanero peppers have a distinctive appearance with a smooth, waxy texture and a deep, chocolate-brown color. They are often characterized by their lantern-like shape, giving them a "Congo Black" or "Black Habanero" appearance in the chili community.

Too Hot?

Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our Chocolate Habanero powder with our milder peppers like our Low Heat Dried Peppers (Chipotle Morita) or our sweet dried peppers (Green Ancho Peppers, Red Cascabel Pepper, Red Poblano Mulato Pepper, Trinidad Pimento (Trini Pemiento), Peppadew Peppers / Sweety Drop Peppers). This will still give you the smoky flavor of the Chocolate Habanero without the overwhelming heat.
