Hacendado Carne de Pimiento Choricero

Hacendado Carne de Pimiento Choricero is a staple ingredient in Spanish cuisine, particularly in the Basque region. This product consists of the hydrated flesh of dried choricero peppers, which provides a deep, earthy flavor to stews and sauces without the heat of chili. It is a private label product from Mercadona, one of Spain's leading supermarket chains.

The brand Hacendado was created by Mercadona to offer high-quality pantry essentials at competitive prices. While Mercadona owns the brand, the product is manufactured by specialized Spanish food processors, typically located in regions like La Rioja or Murcia, known for their high-quality preserved vegetables. This specific product is a key component for authentic dishes like Marmitako or Bacalao a la Vizcaína.
