Delta Honey Chipotle Pecans

Delta Honey Chipotle Pecans "Warpath" a sweet, savory and spicey combination that is intriguing as it takes your taste buds through the different flavors. We use natural Honey, direct from beekeepers in our area, fresh ground chipotle peppers, and Chinese cassia cinnamon.

 

Chipotles are fully ripened jalapenos, meaning they’ve been allowed to mature and turn red on the vine. They are dried by smoking and it takes about 10 pounds of fresh peppers to make one pound of dried. Chipotles are native to Mexico.  Ground from the black and red chipotles, this has a rich, smoky flavor with a nice bit of heat. Ground chipotles register about 6 on heat scale of 1 to 10.

 

Chinese cassia cinnamon has the second highest oil content of cinnamons, ranking at 3-4%.  Cassia is what we in the States commonly know as cinnamon and is from the bark of a cassia tree.

 

Our Honey Chipotle pecans are excellent on salads or a healthy snack for any time.  Great for gifts!
