Guajillo peppers are among the most popular peppers grown in Mexico.

They offer a mild to moderate level of heat, around 3000 Scoville units.

They are smoky, sensual and a little mysterious with a sweet, fruity undertone that balances nicely with earthy spices like cumin and smoked paprika.

They can be used on all types of meat. They are ideal for marinades on pork, chicken or beef. They add depth of flavor without covering the aroma of the meat and can even be used in soups and stews.

They are a key ingredient in many red sauces. They are often blended with other peppers for a more complex flavor. They are used for salsa roja, enchilada sauce, and mole rojo.

To prepare them, soak them in hot water for 15-20 minutes until soft. Then mashed them or ground, usually with garlic, onion, and other spices. They can be lightly roasted before steeping for a more intense flavor.

Red long pepper is an ancient, but relatively unknown spice.

It originates from India, and is used extensively in Ancient Greece and Rome as a medicinal and culinary ingredient.

They look like small, dried cones, like small pine nuts. Their flavor is warmer and deeper than black pepper with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and sometimes licorice.

They have a persistent spicy aftertaste, but not as "hot" as chili.

To use it, you break the peppercorns into pieces (with a mortar or grinder) before using them. They do not grind easily in a regular pepper mill.

Add them to broths or sauces for a more complex flavor, and in marinades for meat.

Also try in mulled wine or teas with cinnamon and cloves.
