Piquillo peppers from Navarra are among Spain's most refined vegetables — sweet, slender, and naturally tender. La Catedral de Navarra sources whole peppers at peak ripeness, roasts them over wood fires to blister the skin, and packs them by hand in their own juices. This 170-gram jar holds peppers that taste like late summer in the Ebro Valley, with no added vinegar or citric acid to mask their delicate flavor.
About this product
These are not the diced or stuffed varieties you might find elsewhere. Each pepper is preserved whole and extra-grade, meaning it meets the highest Spanish standards for shape, color, and texture. The slow-roasting method concentrates their natural sweetness without any harsh smoke. They arrive in their own light broth — that's how you know the roasting was gentle and the flesh stayed intact.
How to enjoy
- Serve at room temperature as a tapa, with crumbly manchego and a drizzle of your finest olive oil.
- Slice and toss into a green salad with white beans and jamón ibérico.
- Stuff with goat cheese, pine nuts, and herbs for a starter.
- Layer into a tortilla or omelet with soft cheese and onion.
- Pair with grilled fish or roasted lamb.

⭐ Why we love this
Piquillo peppers from Navarra are a cornerstone of Spanish gastronomy — their natural sweetness and silky texture are impossible to replicate elsewhere. La Catedral de Navarra's hand-roasting over wood fire and gentle packing in their own juices preserves the pepper's delicate character without shortcuts, making this a product that tastes genuinely of place and tradition.
🍷 Pairing suggestion
Serve these at room temperature alongside a crisp Albariño or a dry Fino sherry — the wine's acidity complements the pepper's subtle sweetness beautifully. They're also perfect as part of a Spanish cheese board with Idiazabal or aged manchego, or nestled into a seafood tapa spread with local white fish and marinated anchovies.
📍 From Spain
These peppers are grown and roasted in Navarra, a northern Spanish region celebrated for producing the world's finest piquillo varieties — the cool, humid climate of the Ebro Valley gives them their characteristic tender flesh and balanced sweetness. La Catedral de Navarra honors centuries of local craftsmanship by preserving each pepper whole and uncompromised.
