Paqu Jaya Peruvian Panka Chili Concentrate

Artisanal company Paqu Jaya is on a mission to share Peru's one-of-a-kind chilies with the world, partnering with small village farmers to support local Peruvian economies. Panca chili peppers are one of the most commonly used varieties in Peruvian cuisine, with a subtle fruity flavor, medium heat and deep earthiness that borders on smoky. We tested several panca chili concentrates side by side, and Paqu Jaya's Panka Chili Concentrate was the clear winner with its smooth consistency and vibrant color.

Use this concentrated paste in marinades for grilled meats, or swirl it into soups or sauces; it's also a great medium-hot tableside condiment if you like spice. Or try an equal volume of the concentrate as a substitute for chopped chipotle peppers or adobo sauce in recipes.
