Chile, Ñora, Massachusetts, Whole

Sweet, mild and earthy, the ñora chile is a staple in Spanish cooking.  As cute as they are delicious, ñora chilies are closely related to bell peppers and can be used ground or rehydrated to add color and deep flavor to seafood, paella, ceviche or chorizo.  Ñora can be difficult to find outside of Spain, so we are happy to be able to offer these locally grown beauties for your next batch of sofrito or paella!
