Aji Arnaucho
Species: Capsicum chinense | Origin: Peru | Pungency: Medium
Aji Arnaucho is a variety from the Norte Chico (Barranca, Huacho, Supe and Casma) region of North-Central coastal Peru, approximately 100 miles north of the capital city of Lima. The plants have a compact growth habit and produce excellent yields of glossy, top-shaped chillies which start creamy yellow and ripen through orange and then to deep red. The immature fruits may sometimes develop a purple anthocyanin cover if the plants are exposed to strong sun. Aji Arnaucho chillies have a good flavour and are used in Peruvian cuisine for spicing up seafood dishes, such as tiradito and cebiche. Although it is a Capsicum chinense variety, the aroma and flavour isn't as pronounced as with most other varieties within the species.
