Andaliman Pepper

Description

A natural treasure from Indonesia’s largest island – northern Sumatra, where Andaliman pepper is harvested specifically in March. Grown wild, not cultivated, Andaliman pepper is a true rarity and the pride of the locals. Hand-picked and sun-dried, the peppers lose up to 90% of their original weight.

Andaliman pepper has an intense citrus aroma – lime and mandarin – but not an overly pungent taste. Dishes prepared with these peppers will make anyone’s mouth water, while the tip of your tongue will experience a slightly numbing effect.

Bogor Agricultural University in Indonesia has particularly valued Andaliman pepper, researching that the shelf life of food prepared with these peppers significantly increases. It has been discovered that these peppers possess anti-microbial and antioxidant properties.

HOW TO USE: Andaliman pepper will fit perfectly in seafood and fish dishes, chicken dishes, Asian cuisine, and various salads. The peppers create a wonderful flavor harmony with garlic, ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, shallots, lime leaves, thereby enriching the taste of chicken and fish.
