These are excellent peppers. Not too hot, not too mild. Perfect.I followed the suggestions of several others by draining the vinegar and packing them in olive oil. This enhanced their flavor and the oil is quite tasty as well.Just like others, I am surprised at the vacuum-sealed plastic top, but I simply repacked the peppers in a sealable container.Very good value.

I fell in love with Calabrian peppers when I made a walnut pesto recipe that called for them. The flavor is complex, fruity, and a little bit smoky. The heat sneaks up on you, because it seems to hit your throat before your lips or tongue warn you what is coming, but there is a big load of flavor traveling with the spiciness.What I didn’t love was paying almost $9 for less than 7 ounces of peppers in oil at my supermarket. So I tried Amazon.It turned out that prices weren’t much better here unless I bought very large quantities. These Roland peppers were easily the best value — but they were packed in vinegar. I was worried they wouldn’t be a suitable replacement for the oil-packed peppers.After reading the comments, I decided to follow the advice to drain the peppers and repack them in oil. After a couple weeks in a cupboard, the peppers were even better than the oil-packed peppers from the market, because I used all olive oil instead of the blend of sunflower and olive oils in the market version.I usually dice them very finely so the heat and flavor are distributed through a dish. A favorite use is in pizza sauce for homemade pizza.A big bonus is the now-flavored oil that let’s me easily add Calabrian pepper flavor to any dish that I think will benefit from it. I only have one teaspoon to clean up rather than a knife and cutting board.

Theses peppers add a very nice flavor to dishes, the spice is very mild.

Very nice chile’s. They are medium heat, based on Scoville ranking of 25-40K units, which is just above the Serrano. For comparison, the jalapeño is about 8k Scoville units. I drained them, discarded the vinegar- even though it would have made a nice marinade, I’d have no one to share the meal with as all my friends and family think black pepper is spicy. Alas, I’m alone in this love of spicy food. They’ve been marinating in this jar combined with a nice extra virgin olive oil (I didn’t buy anything special, just what I had in the pantry) for the past six weeks and finally opened it and drizzled it on some mozzarella, prosciutto, and bread and it is wonderful. I like spice so this was not overwhelming (or even a challenge) but for others, it will be quite spicy. Enjoy it.

Gave these a try after seeing a reference in a recipe. Have enjoyed my pickled garden jalapenos and have been on a pepper kick lately. But the jalapenos’ flavor profile is one-dimensional when compared to these pickled Calabrian peppers! They are spicy but not terribly so and certainly not like red Chinese chilies. The vinegar adds a note of tartness that offsets the heat. I have used them chopped in chimichurri and arrabiata sauces, and whole in assorted pickle and olive trays. Everyone who has tried them (admittedly all pepper lovers) have been impressed and enjoyed them.

This is the first time I tried this kind of pepper and I love them, the heat is comparable to a serrano pepper ( too hot to eat plain)but it has a nice different flavor and not like pickled vinegar peppers I’m not to fond of strong vinegar flavors

I love these right out of the container which is how we eat them, I’m sure they’re wonderful in dishes but I will never know!!! the price is extremely inexpensive!!!

Why are people under rating this Chilli because it has some spice to it?… it’s a Chilli, a pepper, not a candy or made with sugar… I has some spice but the flavor is awesome and well worth the money. This is my first ever Chilli purchase and not regretted.
