Mejor Chile de árbol para cocinar en casa

Para qué sirve Chile de árbol, en qué cocinas aparece y dónde encontrarlo.

Por qué empezar aquí

The slender red chile that turns a table salsa into a warning: clean heat, little fruit, no apology.

Toast briefly and grind for a rust-red powder, or fry in oil for a salsa that keeps. A few pods in a pot of beans will announce themselves.

Do not confuse it with cayenne from a jar unless you have tasted both. Árbol is brighter. Cayenne is dustier. Use what you have, and say so.
