Ingredients Terre Exotique Wiri Wiri Chilli Pepper 20g

Terre Exotique’s wiri chilli pepper is a hot and fiery addition to stews, soups and sauces. The wiri pepper – also known as the cherry chilli (yes it’s small and round like a cherry!) – is the cousin of the Cayenne chilli pepper. It has strong tomato aromas and an explosive heat, rating between 100,000 and 150,000 on the Scoville Heat Unit. 

The wiri wiri chilli grows on the edges of tropical forests where the climate is warm and moist. With its strong spiciness, we recommended using the chilli pepper sparingly. Infuse in sauce and stews then remove before serving, or finely chop and mix with garlic, lime juice and oil for a punchy salad dressing. 

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in tins or glass jars – with no plastic. The metal tins preserve the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.
