Organic Piparras From Ibarra

DE LA CUEVA Organic Ibarra piparras are characterized by their thin skin and mild flavor, as they hardly bite.
The secret of the quality of these piparras lies in:

Raw Material Selection

These delicious chillies have been grown in organic gardens near the Gipuzkoan town of Ibarra where the special climate of the area, with cool and humid summers, favors the development of a variety of native piparra that has not developed itching.

The organic piparras are harvested by hand at the end of August, when the size of the chilli reaches between 8 and 12 centimeters and while it still maintains its green color, since if the chilli were allowed to over-ripen and turn red, it would become spicy.

Artisan Packaging

The fresh piparras are taken daily to a small cooperative in the town of Ibarra where they are washed and later selected by hand by size, eliminating those chillies that have any defects.

The chillies are later packed in glass jars with a very clear vinegar that will allow the preservation of this product and give it an acid taste.

The chillies will be left to marinate in vinegar for at least 30 days before they can be marketed. In this period of time, the chilli will change its initial intense green color to a yellowish color and its skin will soften.

The result

These chillies are ideal as an appetizer straight from the jar with a little oil and salt.

They are also perfect for making the famous "Gildas", a combination of olives, peppers and anchovies.

In the Basque Country and Navarra, piparras are also consumed to accompany spoon dishes such as beans, providing a very interesting contrast.
