Guajillo Chiles Peppers Dried Whole 5 oz – Natural and Premium. Great For Mexican Recipes Like Mole, Tamales, Salsa, Meats. Mild to Medium Heat, Complex Fruity Flavor. Resealable Bag.…

This is the first time I have used these peppers in a recipe, to try a new recipe to me (birria tacos). I rarely write reviews, but I have to rave about these peppers because the quality is outstanding, in my opinion. Again, a newbie with these, but these peppers are not dried out, they are pliable, leathery and seem really fresh. I wanted to get the seeds out. They were strong and soft enough for me to gently stick my knife down into them (after cutting the tops off) and rotating it around to knock all the seeds loose. The flavor after cooking was delicious. I cooked them for about 3 hours whole & then put in blender & put the slurry into a tied up cloth & back into the pot to continue to seep it's goodness into the meat broth. They are fantastic! Buy with confidence! (My husband later bought some other dried guajillo peppers in El Paso, and it was then that I realized that they are not all packaged and made the same. The ones he bought were all dried out and broke easily. I can foresee more of a challenge separating the seeds due to their fragility. I hesitate these on anything but a cheap piece of meat (as if that exists anymore in today's market) or some burger. The bag was torn, as it wasn't strong like the one in the review, and I can see I will have more of a challenge separating the seeds.)

The best, super fresh and flavorful

Quality product. Very fresh

Love these!! Use them for out chili every time. Really takes it to another level.

General condition of the dried peppers was very good. However, when opening them to remove seeds, foud a couple with mold inside, so the handling and rying process must have been less than optimal. The flavor of the shredded beef dish prepared with these peppers tuned out very well.
