Madagascar Vegetarian Chillies

Dried Vegetarian Chillies from Madagascar.

Our vegetarian chilli pepper comes straight from the gardens of a large restaurant in the capital Antananarivo in Madagascar. It is picked fresh and mature and dried on site.

Vegetarian chilli is a sweet and fruity flavoured chilli, which is often used to add flavour and heat to dishes without the heat of chilli. 

The vegetarian chilli pepper generally scores between 0 and 100 on the Scoville scale compared to the Habanero chilli pepper which scores over 100,000.

Vegetarian chilli can be used to add flavour and heat to sauces and marinades. For example, you can use it to make a hot sauce for tacos, or to marinate tofu before grilling.

Asian food lovers are particularly fond of this chilli. It is commonly used in Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese dishes, to name but a few. Vegetarian chilli is also a key ingredient in many spice powders, such as curry or Garam Masala.

Vegetarian chilli is also very suitable for macerated spirits and blended rums. It goes well with fruits such as mango and pineapple, but also with citrus fruits such as yuzu and combava.
