What it is

Fire-roasted jalapeno peppers are a type of chili pepper that has been roasted over an open flame. This process gives them a smoky flavor and softens their texture. They are a variety of the species *Capsicum annuum*, native to Mexico.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use fire-roasted jalapeno peppers to add a smoky, spicy flavor to a variety of foods. They are commonly found in dips, salsas, marinades, seasonings, and prepared meals. The roasting process enhances their natural heat and aroma.

Health notes

Jalapeno peppers are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of vitamins and antioxidants. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar capsaicin-containing substances. While generally safe in typical food amounts, very high consumption of chili peppers can cause digestive discomfort for some individuals.

Allergen info

Jalapeno peppers are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
