1. Piquillo peppers are a unique variety of bell pepper originating from Northern Spain. They have a distinctively sweet and smoky flavor and a slightly crunchy texture. The peppers are harvested when they are bright red and around 4 inches in length. They are then peeled, seeded, and roasted to enhance their flavor and texture.

This paste is made by pureeing the peppers and then adding olive oil, garlic, and herbs such as oregano or thyme.
