For me, one of the most interesting characteristics of chillies is that they are all so different, the Cascabel is no exception as the skin is very thin and becomes tough almost leathery
While the seeds inside are numerous to say the least, but with a dried pod the seeds are loose and rattle around inside making a great sound, to the point that they were/are given to small
children in Mexico to play with while the other pods are being cooked with
The whole pod requires a longer period of soaking compared to other chillies and it is recommended that if using the skin is chopped up finely first, however this has been done for you with the
Powder form but still may contain the odd piece of cascabel skin
The chilli for such a small skin is full of dye which makes a great colour sauce, while the slightly acidic thick flesh offers a medium rich flavour and a tannic quality that aims for the back of
the throat.
Woodsy and smoky-flavoured, this chilli has nutty and tobacco overtones
