Whole Roasted Organic Piquillo Peppers from La Catedral de Navarra

Piquillo de Lodosa from Navarra, Spain

Piquillo peppers are exclusively cultivated in the Navarra region of Northern Spain and are protected under PDO status. Under strict quality control, the Piquillo variety must meet government-established guidelines during cultivation, harvest and packing. These whole Piquillo peppers are roasted over a direct flame and are cored and peeled by hand before being packed in their own juices to preserve their naturally fruity flavor. Softly smoky, tender with a supple texture, these sweet red peppers are ready to be used straight from the jar.

How to Use

Add these peppers to salads, sandwiches and homemade pizzas. Or, slice and serve over salty grilled halloumi garnished with fresh herbs, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Make a elegant sauce to serve over grilled sardines, pork tenderloin or roasted potatoes by blitzing these peppers in a food processor with extra virgin olive oil, sherry vinegar, garlic and cayenne pepper.
