Product Description

The plant, originally from Mexico and to a lesser extent South America, was introduced in France from the New World around the 16th century. After first being used medicinally, it has since become popular for preparing condiments and for the conservation of meat and ham. It is now a cornerstone of Basque cuisine, where it has gradually replaced black pepper and it is a key ingredient in piperade. AOC espelette peppers are cultivated in the following communes: Ainhoa, CambolesBains, Espelette, Halsou, Itxassou, Jatxou, Larressore, SaintPA esurNivelle, SouraAde, and Ustaritz. It is harvested in late summer and, in September, characteristic festoons of pepper are hung on balconies and house walls throughout the communes to dry out. An annual pepper festival, attracting some 20,000 tourists, is held in October. This gourmet pepper powder is imported from France.

Goes a long way...
To the person who wrote, "Can't tell the difference between paprika and this..." Yeah, no. This is actually a very distinct and enjoyable foodie addition... I use it on soft-boiled eggs at least once a week - amazing flavor, mild heat. Worth it!(Oh, and also, Spice Lab sends a very useful - and cool (!) tiny little carved wooden spoon - which I ONLY use for delivering this treat to my eggs). Bonus!

What a delicious pepper powder. Mild yet so full of layers upon layers of flavor. About as hot as coarse ground black pepper, this stuff will please everyone. Perfect for Basque Chicken, which I am making today. Perfect on scrambled eggs, tuna salad and devilled eggs. Highly recommended.

Piment d'Espelette is a unique product. It is subject to Appellation d'Origine Controlee regulation, which extends the right to use the AOC label only to ten communes in the Basque country in France. The peppers are grown, harvested, dried and prepared subject to strict regulation and, like wine, cheese and other products subject to the AOC, must display the typical "organoleptic characteristics" of the traditionally produced spice. Piment d'Espelette is never strong or screamingly hot, so if you are expecting something akin to Scotch Bonnet peppers, or the acrid bite of "chili pepper" blends, look elsewhere. However, it does have a sweet and smoky aroma, akin to good pimenton or paprika, along with a distinct peppery 'bite' at the finish.

Piment d'Espelette is never inexpensive and it is usually not easy to find in the US, so having this source available is great. I use it in almost everything -- for example, peel and slice cucumbers, toss with a good quantity of freshly squeezed lemon juice (Meyer lemons preferred), a pinch of sugar, a large pinch of fleur de sel or kosher salt, and a pinch of piment d'Espelette. Let the cukes sit in a colander for up to half an hour, tossing occasionally, then serve. Trust me, you will not fail to notice the presence of the piment. It's also great and sufficiently assertive to dress a good sized composed salad with just a pinch in a basic vinaigrette dressing of lemon juice, white wine vinegar, dijon mustard and grapeseed, walnut or olive oil. Wonderful sprinkled lightly over a platter of carved "rotisserie chicken" from the grocery. Adds a nice edge to rillettes or a terrine. Adds pop to scrambled eggs, quiche... just think of anything you'd like to lend a subtly sweet, smoky and hot red peppery note, and give it a healthy pinch of piment d'Espelette.

Another reviewer reports that he received piment d'Espelette from this source ("Touch of France") that was tasteless. I've not had that experience. I received very fresh piment with the AOC labeling, with aromas and flavors that are perfectly "typique." If you really want to get "fresh," you could go with the whole dried, corded peppers which are also sold subject to the AOC (corded by hand with no fewer than 20 peppers per cord). I like the convenience of the ground piment and recommend this supplier without reservation based on the product I received. The price is about as fair as one can find nowadays, and I bet you can double up on the order for a single shipping charge.

For more about piment d'Espelette generally, you can google piment d'Espelette and you will find the "Site officiel de l'AOC" (alas, for some reason the good folks at Amazon would not allow me to include the URL in this review).

I've purchased this brand of Piment d'Espelette from Biperduna on Amazon a few times, and I love it more than any other seasoning in my kitchen. I use it primarily as I am braising greens, such as swiss chard and kale, but it is terrific on many other foods, cooked in or sprinkled on at the table. My partner and I once did a "tasting" of seven different paprikas (some hot, some sweet, some smoked) and the one that stood out to us both as by far the most characterful was Piment d'Espelette. I don't think of it as paprika, though: it is less finely ground, and has a much brighter flavor than paprika. it's a bit tart, and not terribly hot. Delicious! n.b., I recently discovered this same brand in half-sized bottle in a Sur La Table store: half the quantity for approximately the same price as this direct sale on Amazon!

In a lifetime of adventurous home cooking I have experimented with many forms of pepper seasoning. I have seen certain ones come into vogue and then fade back into being very useful seasonings for occasional use. Piment d'Espelette is a fine product that adds a rich and moderately spicy red pepper note where desired. In my pantry now I have three styles of Spanish pimenton (paprika): hot, mild and smokey. Compared to those pimentons, piment d'esplette has a rounder flavor that lacks the bitterness that some paprika shows while good Spanish paprika seems 'toastier.' In any case the two products have very different flavor. It is about as 'hot' as hot Spanish Paprika but less hot than cayenne pepper. Having such a wide experience with peppers, I do not find this product to be a 'revelation' but it is a welcome addition to my pantry and I have come to prefer it for digestible chillis, barbecue rubs and as part of a mix for seasoning roasting chickens. The grind is medium, neither fine nor coarse as the product comes from the pepper's flesh rather than from seeds.
