Fresh Ají Cachucha (Ají Dulce) Pepper Pods

Authentic Caribbean Seasoning Pepper

Bring the sweet, smoky aroma of Caribbean cooking to your kitchen with fresh Ají Cachucha peppers, also known as Ají Dulce, Ajicito, or Ají Gustoso. These small seasoning peppers deliver the fruity character of a habanero with little to no heat, making them ideal for flavor-first dishes.

Why You’ll Love Them

• Sweet, smoky, and deeply aromatic flavor
• Traditionally used in Puerto Rican and Caribbean cooking
• Excellent for sofrito, beans, rice, stews, sauces, and marinades
• Fresh pods can be frozen for later use

Flavor and Use

Green pods offer a brighter, sharper flavor, while red or orange pods become softer and sweeter as they ripen. Chop them into sofrito, blend them into seasoning bases, or add them whole to slow-cooked dishes for an unmistakable Caribbean aroma.

Fresh produce can vary naturally in color, size, and ripeness.
