Review: Perfect Balance of Heat and Flavor - These Calabrian chili peppers are absolutely delicious. They have the perfect balance of heat, tanginess, and rich flavor without being overwhelmingly spicy. They’re fantastic on pizza, sandwiches, pasta, burgers, and just about anything that could use a little kick. The peppers are fresh, high quality, and packed with flavor. I’ll definitely be buying these again. Highly recommended. Review: Repack in oil for a low-cost upgrade and a pepper flavor you will love. - 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 desertcart. 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. ## Features - CALABRIAN CHILI PEPPERS: Add a rich and spicy accent to pizzas and sauces - SPICY AND SMOKY: Spicy whole peppers with a vinegary kick - READY TO EAT: Enjoy the marinated red peppers directly with no preparation needed - RESTAURANT QUALITY: Ideal for use in food service or in the home - IMPORTED FROM ITALY: A gourmet international specialty food product ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B073MPQLCK | | Best Sellers Rank | #132,943 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #193 in Italian Seasonings | | Brand | Roland Foods | | Brand Name | Roland Foods | | Color | Orange Red To Dark Red | | Container Type | Jar | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 416 Reviews | | Flavor | Spicy | | Item Form | Whole | | Item Weight | 1.4 pounds | | Manufacturer | American Roland Food Corp. | | Model Number | American Roland Food Corp. | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | American Roland Food Corp. | | Produce Sold As Format | Pre-packaged | | Produce sold as | Pre-packaged | | Size | 1.43 Pound (Pack of 1) | | Temperature Condition | Fresh | | UPC | 041224454880 | | Unit Count | 17.5 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Roland Foods - **Item Form:** Whole - **Item Weight:** 1.4 pounds - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 17.5 Ounce ## Images ![Calabrian Chili Peppers in Vinegar, Specialty Imported Food, 17.5 Ounce, Pack of 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813S6qeJmcL.jpg) ![Calabrian Chili Peppers in Vinegar, Specialty Imported Food, 17.5 Ounce, Pack of 1 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YcBu5PUtL.jpg) ![Calabrian Chili Peppers in Vinegar, Specialty Imported Food, 17.5 Ounce, Pack of 1 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71S6w9LX1qL.jpg) ![Calabrian Chili Peppers in Vinegar, Specialty Imported Food, 17.5 Ounce, Pack of 1 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71E5-FtCDrL.jpg) ![Calabrian Chili Peppers in Vinegar, Specialty Imported Food, 17.5 Ounce, Pack of 1 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71VUAlyFKhL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: long will these peppers last in oil as other reviewers suggested to and how to storehow them if i drain vinegar and pack in oil?** A: The batch of peppers I drained and packed in olive oil lasted at least 6 months with no apparent loss of quality. By the time I used the last of the peppers after 9-10 months, they were losing color and getting softer. The peppers were stored in a kitchen cabinet **Q: Should these be refrigerated?** A: I used mine to make a chili infused olive oil and I did not refrigerate it. This is what’s left. **Q: Can this be added to rice ?** A: Absolutely. You can add these to most anything! **Q: I noticed that roland calabrian chili peppers have wine vinager! does this mean they have alchol?** A: No. There is no alcohol. The vinegar preserves the chilis. These chilis are very spicey and small and they have a vinegar taste to them. I used them to spice up some items that I pickled and canned at home and they worked well. A little goes a long way. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Balance of Heat and Flavor *by J***N on August 1, 2026* These Calabrian chili peppers are absolutely delicious.

I’ve had other Calabrian peppers and these ones are blazing. Pretty much just packed in vinegar, so I read the review about removing the vinegar and adding olive oil instead. I did that and now they are tolerable and have a different flavor profile that I find much easier to deal with. But wow!
