Spicyness:
Arbol chilies, or "tree" chilies, are spicy, hot, dried chilies used throughout Mexico to flavor soups, broths and sauces. Arbol chilies have a fiery, bright red color when ripe. Later, they are sun-dried to increase their pungency and bold flavor. The clear heat of arbol chilies makes them the ideal ingredient for homemade salsas, sauces, pastes and soups. So if you want to create your own salsas, grab it!
