Pimenta de Neyde Yellow Powder is obtained by grinding the yellow variant of this Brazilian cultivar, with a more citrusy profile than the base version.
source plant, Capsicum chinense, produces small drop-shaped fruits that ripen to a bright yellow.
powder comes from fruits grown from seeds sown early, in January-February, in a heated seedbed, needed for full ripening.
slow drying preserves the variety's citrusy notes, followed by fine grinding that produces a yellow powder with a fresh aroma.
it should be stored in an airtight container away from light and moisture, dosed carefully given its high heat level.
when handling it, gloves, safety goggles and a mask should be worn, as the concentrated powder can irritate skin, eyes and airways.
Pimenta de Neyde Yellow Powder has a high heat level, with citrusy notes, ideal for Brazilian cuisine, light-coloured sauces and fish dishes.
it concentrates high doses of capsaicin, with stimulating effects on metabolism and circulation, plus a rich intake of vitamin C.
