The habanero pepper, also called ají or chile habanero, is one of the most intense heats in Puerto Rican cooking, with a fruity aroma you notice before the heat kicks in. Produced in Puerto Rico, it's great for spicing up hot sauces, escabeche, sofrito, and marinades wherever you want a strong kick. Use it carefully: chop it well and avoid touching your eyes, and remove the seeds if you want a milder version. Keep it refrigerated and use it within a couple of weeks so it holds onto its freshness and aroma.
