ORANESSENCE - Vietnamese Chili - Hot 25g

A staple of Southeast Asian kitchens, the Vietnamese chili is a type of cayenne commonly found in Hanoi markets. Often confused with Thai chilies or "bird's eye" chilies, it stands out with a more direct heat, less sweetness, and a bright aromatic profile. When dried, its flavors become even more concentrated and it rehydrates quickly, releasing its full power in oil- or broth-based preparations. Perfect in stir-fries, noodles, and soups like pho, it can be used whole, crushed, or ground. A single pod adds a warm, fruity touch; several intensify the sensation for a spicier experience. This Vietnamese chili is essential for adding character and authenticity to all your culinary creations.

Usage: It is best used dried in dishes that allow it to rehydrate gradually: stews, sauces, soups, oils. Using an infuser is recommended.
