Spicyness:
This is one of the most commonly used dried chilies in Mexican cuisine, especially in sauces. The chili pepper can also be used in fresh form, although it is less common. It is characterized by a spicy flavor and a good aroma. Arbol chilies have a smoky, slightly nutty flavor (reminiscent of nuts like walnuts). It is a hot variety and is often used with other dried chilies to make table sauces. Arbol is also added to some stews to enhance the flavor.
