We heat dried chili peppers until their flavors are unleashed, then douse them with buttery, late harvest olive oil and set it to steep. Our Hot Chili extra virgin olive oil has heat with a depth of nutty, chili flavor and a gorgeous color that is irresistible. On a hot scale of 1-10 we put it at a 3-4 (our Jalapeño oil is a 4-5).
Essential in a stir-fry, great in scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, and an easy garnish for tacos, grilled corn, pizza, or any dish that needs a touch of heat and color.
As always, our olive oils are all first- and cold-pressed, and grown herbicide and pesticide free!
