Mirasol chillies are a true natural marvel! They may be chillies but they smell like fruity gooseberries or cherries. They'resweet, full bodied and very mild in heat, soyou could even munch on them directly like a fresh fruit! These chillies are our absolute favourite for adding nuance and aroma to a dish.You may or may not know it, but all the world's chillies can be traced back to Central America, and as such, these chillies can be thought of as the original chillies!
