PASILLA BAJIO. A well-known Mexican pepper variety valued for its rich aroma and distinctive flavor. It is often referred to as “black chili” because of the dark color of the mature fruits. This variety is a good choice for those who prefer peppers that are aromatic without being excessively hot. The fruits are commonly used dried. After drying, they develop a deeper and more intense aroma, making them ideal for grinding and using in various seasonings, sauces, and spice blends. This pepper adds a pleasant touch of heat and a distinctive peppery character to dishes.
The variety has a relatively low heat level — less than 250 Scoville Heat Units, so it can be considered mildly hot. It is suitable for those who want to add a gentle spicy note to their dishes without overpowering the flavor of the other ingredients. Thanks to its good flavor and ability to retain its rich aroma after drying, this variety is interesting both for home growing and for those who enjoy preparing their own aromatic spices.
