Roasted piquillo peppers by Maria Jesus are a sweet variant of chili peppers, carrying succulent, luscious flavors. They are cooked according to traditional methods - roasted over acorns and oak embers to deliver sweet and smooth smoky flavors.
Peppers have been an essential part of Spain’s culinary culture ever since the 16th century when Christopher Columbus introduced chili peppers to Spain.
