Chile Guajillo Xatze has a medium heat, similar to that of the jalapeño, but its main feature is a fruity, slightly sweet flavor with a delicate herbal note reminiscent of green tea. This balance between moderate heat and fruity notes makes it versatile, able to add depth and character to moles, adobo, sauces and stews without being overpowering.

To use Chile Guajillo Xatze, remove the seeds and stem, then briefly toast it in a dry pan to intensify its aroma. Soak it in hot water for 15 minutes and blend it with onion, garlic and tomato to make a guajillo sauce that suits tacos, enchiladas, pozole or grilled meat. Alternatively, steep it in olive oil to create a spicy oil to use on salads, pasta or bruschetta.
