De Arbol are very hot but they also have a nice nutty flavor. Closely related to cayenne peppers, De Arbol chiles are bright red, 2-3 inches long and pointed. Thinly fleshed, De Arbol chiles have a searing, acidic heat and are primarily used in powdered form to make sauces, but can also be found in soups and stews. Toast them and then blend with tomatillos, onion, garlic and a little water for a great table salsa. They come in handy anytime a little spark of intense heat is required.
