Product Description

PURPOSE

WHAT IS IT?

Ground loses most of the fresh version’s bell pepper notes. It just brings on a mild-to-moderate heat. It’s also a great salt substitute, when used in moderation.

EXPERIENCE

CULINARY GEOGRAPHY

The jalapeño is found throughout both Central and North America.  There are five species of the pepper, twenty-one major varietals, and hundreds of sub-varietals.

Mexico is still the largest producer, and consumer, of them.

Jalapeños are grown commercially, as well, in California, New Mexico, and Texas.

The pepper is particularly used in Tex-Mex, and Mexican cuisines, but the ground can find its way into any food.

TRADITIONAL USES

IMPROVISATIONAL ‘RIFFS’

HEALTH WARNING

Jalapeño powder is from a pungent pepper. When ground into a powder, it can become airborne much more easily. If it spills, clear the area, and let the dust settle before cleaning up, and/or proceeding with your cooking.

If you breathe the powder in, and it’s irritating your nose, you can use a strong saline (salt water) rinse. Salt helps flush out the pepper, and draw out the capsaicin from the mucus membranes of your nose.

THE BACKSTORY

Jalapeños originate in the soils of Mexico, in the area around what is now the town of Jalapa.  Use of them goes well beyond the Aztecs, prior to the Spanish conquest, and the peoples of the region before them, dating back thousands of years.
