Habanero Chile Pepper

Though this chile gets its name from La Habana, or Havana Cuba where it was once heavily traded, this chile pepper is actually from the Yucatan region of Mexico, and not much used in Cuban cuisine. About 100 times hotter than a jalapeno, this chile was once the worst hottest pepper. Though it does bring a heavy hitting kick to the dishes it is featured in, it does also have a subtle fruitiness that accompanies the heat. At Gather we use Habaneros that have fully ripened to ensure the best flavor.
