Chile pequn (Chiltepin) is a small, potent chili pepper native to Mexico and the southwestern United States. It is known for its intense heat and fruity, slightly smoky flavor profile. Typically used in powdered form, chile pequn adds a fiery kick to dishes like salsas, sauces, and marinades. Despite its small size, it packs a punch, so it's often used sparingly to add bold flavor without overwhelming the palate.
