Magic Plant Orange / Yellow Fatalii Pepper Flakes

The Citrus Fire of Africa—Intense Heat with a Sharp, Fruity Bite.

Overview

Our natural Orange and Yellow Fatalii peppers pack a powerful heat at 125,000 to 325,000 (SHUs). Unlike "creeper heat" varieties, the Fatalii is known for its immediate and aggressive burn that hits the tongue instantly. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex citrus and lime-like flavor! Our Fatalii ground pepper, crushed flakes, and dry whole pods are extremely hot (spicy), so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is felt right away, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Fatalii is a member of the Capsicum chinense family originating from central and southern Africa, resulting in its unique tropical heat level. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Fatalii peppers have a distinctive appearance with a wrinkled skin and a vibrant yellow or orange color. They are often characterized by their slender, tapering shape, giving them a sharp and elegant appearance in the chili community.

The Experience

Fatalii peppers are known to be a favorite among connoisseurs of African and Caribbean cuisine! So why eat it? Like most chili peppers, in certain amounts the sensation can be quite pleasing and causes the release of endorphins in the brain, which make you feel pleasure. Studies suggest that Capsaicin may have certain health benefits, such as pain relief, improved digestion, and potential metabolism-boosting effects. Eat with caution but enjoy the complex flavor provided by Magic Plant Farms' Fataliis. Use our premium quality dry chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! This pepper is perfect in small doses for a specific aromatic kick in stews, sauces, soups, and salsas. For the brave of heart, just add more directly on top!

Too Hot?

Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our dry flakes or ground Fatalii peppers 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 sharp citrus flavor of the Fatalii without the overwhelming heat.

Culinary Applications

Our Fatalii pepper has gained significant recognition and popularity for its ability to cut through heavy flavors with its bright acidity. It is often associated with gourmet hot sauce makers and lovers of bright, citrusy heat.

• Spice Blends: Add a pinch of Fatalii flakes to spice blends to give them a sharp heat and citrusy boost. It works exceptionally well in lemon-pepper seasonings and seafood rubs.
• Hot Sauces: Fatalii flakes are a premium ingredient in "yellow" hot sauces. They add a fiery sting and a natural tanginess to the sauce without the need for excessive vinegar.
• Marinades and Rubs: Incorporate a small amount of Fatalii flakes into marinades for fish, chicken, or pork. It infuses them with intense heat and a unique, bright flavor profile.
• Spicy Condiments: Sprinkle a pinch of Fatalii flakes onto mayonnaise or tartar sauce to give them a fiery, tropical twist.
• Salsas and Dips: Enhance the heat of fruit-based salsas (like mango or peach) by adding a small amount of Fatalii flakes.
• Pickling: If you enjoy citrus-forward pickled vegetables, adding a touch of Fatalii flakes to the pickling brine can give your pickles an extra zing.
• Infused Oils: Create your own bright, spicy infused oils by adding Fatalii flakes to a neutral oil. Let it infuse for a few days to develop a clean, sharp heat.
• Bloody Marys and Cocktails: For a unique twist on a spicy margarita or a citrus-heavy cocktail, a tiny amount of Fatalii flakes can provide a clean, searing heat.
