Guajillo Chile  - (Capsicum annum) - Seeds

The Guajillo Pepper, a dried form of the Mirasol chili, is a staple in Mexican cuisine, prized for its fruity, smoky flavor and mild heat level. These glossy, reddish-brown peppers are 4–6 inches long with thin flesh and a slightly tangy, tea-like undertone, complemented by hints of cranberry and subtle sweetness. Ideal for moles, salsas, marinades, and rubs, Guajillos add depth and warmth to dishes while remaining approachable for most spice tolerances. Vigorous plants grow 2–3 feet tall and produce abundant pods, which can be used fresh, dried, or ground into powder. Easy to grow and versatile, Guajillos are an essential ingredient in authentic Mexican cooking.
