Where To Buy Thai Chili Peppers

Currently offering excellent quality mixed red & green chillis for immediate shipment. While many different varities of chile peppers are found in Thai cuisine, we offer the most common variety known as prik ki nu, or “bird chile”. Our chiles are very spicy, with high heat level and nice appearance. You can expect your fresh chiles to arrive with fresh green stems and clean appearance, ready for cooking.

Most of our Thai recipes call for Thai chiles and these will work fine for all of your Thai cooking needs. If your local grocer has a good selection of chile peppers, feel free to use whatever is available and don’t let the type of chiles stop you from cooking Thai food. Habanero will offer higher heat than Thai chile, and jalapeno will be lower. You can mix and match as you prefer, or just order the real thing from us.

Our Thai chiles are grown in the United States and we have a year-round supply. We most often ship mixed green/red Thai chiles, as shown, but on a seasonal basis we may have only green.

We ship fresh USA-grown Thai chiles via Fedex Express, quick delivery within 2 days straight to your door. Checkout with GROUND shipping and we will upgrade to Express at no extra charge.

They are packaged well and should be refrigerated promptly. Occasional delays due to Mother Nature & harvest conditions. Call 888-618-8424 if you need a definite delivery date. We also offer a Fresh Thai Produce Kit.

Thai chile is an annual plant that grows into a bush (see pictures below). The fruit contains many white seeds and you can remove the seeds to tone the heat level down if you prefer a milder flavor. Fresh chiles are a great source of vitamin A, B and C. We also offer whole dried chile peppers and we offer ground Thai chiles which are both very high-heat.

Good quality fresh chiles will keeps for a weeks in the fridge before they change color and break down. For long-term storage, freeze in a ziplock bag. Freezing will maintain flavor, but the chiles become a bit soft/mushy when defrosted for later use.

In Health magazine, Dr Jennifer Berman’s article “Healthy Life. Great Sex. Six Foods For Better Sex” mentioned chile peppers. She states “Chile peppers can really spice things up-and not just in your mouth-thanks to capsaicin, a chemical that’s been shown to induce the release of endorphins in the brain, which create a feeling of euphoria. The potential payoff? Enhanced foreplay and hotter sex.”

You might want to pickup some little jars like this from a local kitchen store (we got these at Cost Plus World Market for $4), and make your own hot sauce to give away as gifts for the holiday season.

Method Fill your glass jar with red and green Thai chile peppers, stemmed, filling to 1-2 inches from top of jar. Bring 1 cup white wine vinegar (as shown) or cider vinegar, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp sugar to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat, and let stand for about 5 minutes.
