Magic Plant Red Wiri Wiri Pepper Puree

The Guyanese Treasure—Bold Heat with a Tangy, Berry-like Finish.

Overview

Our natural Red Wiri Wiri packs a powerful heat at 100,000 to 350,000 (SHUs). Our Wiri Wiri peppers deliver a sharp, upfront heat that is highly sought after in South American and Caribbean cuisines. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex tangy and fruity flavor! Our Red Wiri Wiri ground pepper, crushed flakes, dry whole pods, and fermented puree are very hot (spicy) so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is vibrant and potent, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Wiri Wiri is a legendary staple of Guyanese culture, often called the "cherry pepper" due to its small, round shape and intense heat level. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Wiri Wiri peppers have a distinctive appearance with a smooth, round, berry-like texture and a brilliant red color. They are often characterized by their small size and upright growing habit, giving them a decorative yet fiery appearance in the chili community.

The Experience

Red Wiri Wiri peppers are known to be a favorite among gourmet cooks and hot sauce aficionados! 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' Wiri Wiri peppers. Use our premium quality 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 fermented puree 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 tangy fruity flavor of the Red Wiri Wiri without the overwhelming heat.
