Production & Sourcing
Dried whole red hot peppers are made by harvesting fully ripened red chili peppers, typically from varieties known for their heat and flavor. The peppers are carefully selected and cleaned to remove any dirt or debris. They are then strung together in clusters or individually threaded onto strings and hung in a warm, dry environment with good air circulation to facilitate dehydration. Over several days to weeks, the peppers gradually lose moisture and shrink, becoming brittle and dry.
