Dried Peppers
Dried peppers are fresh chili peppers preserved through dehydration, a process that intensifies their natural sweetness and heat while creating a chewy, leathery texture. This form retains concentrated levels of vitamins A and C, along with capsaicin—the compound responsible for their spiciness—and is widely used in spice blends, stews, and sauces across global cuisines. Depending on the pepper variety, they may be rehydrated whole, ground into powders, or toasted to develop complex smoky flavors.
