Pimenta de Neyde Red Powder is obtained by grinding the red variant of this Brazilian cultivar, with a more intense fruity profile than the other colour variants.
source plant, Capsicum chinense, produces small drop-shaped fruits that ripen to a bright red.
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 intense fruity notes, followed by fine grinding that produces a vivid red powder with a distinctive 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 Red Powder has a high heat level, with intense fruity notes, ideal for Brazilian cuisine, spicy red sauces and meat dishes.
it concentrates high doses of capsaicin, with stimulating effects on metabolism and circulation, plus a rich intake of vitamin C.
