Maria Fejzo: This is a great substitute for a real aji amarillo. I cannot find the real thing where I live so this paste lets me use it to make my Peruvian spicy sauce. This paste is spicy... a little goes a long way.

Barbara Bugatto: I bought this product to go in my recipe for Peruvian Chicken Aji Amarillo with Rice, a recipe provided by the chef for St. Anthony's Dining Room in San Francisco. This is a yummy dish made with chicken thighs, potatoes, heavy cream and coconut milk. It is wonderful and the Aji Amarillo adds a wonderful taste without too much heat. I am definitely going to try to devise more recipes in which to use this product. It's a winner!!

Clark: It came very well packaged. It was wrapped in bubble wrap and seemed very secure. The intensity of the flavor really surprised me. It has a nice kick of spice to it but the flavor is well preserved.

J. M. CapellaJ. M. Capella: To be fair, the flavor is amazing. An authentic yellow aji worthy of an amazing huancaina sauce.

Unfortunately, as the pictures show, the bottle arrived unsealed. The strip of tape that was placed there apparently to hold the lid securely did not seem to work. Rather I'm sure it kep it from unscrewing, but I believe it was kept in a hot environment for too long, which popped the seal and caused paste to leak from the edges.

This item is supposed to be "refundable but not returnable" if it arrives damaged. However, the product carries the wrong link - return or replace - which leads to a screen that says "this item is not eligible for returns."

Much to my good fortune, after keeping it in the refrigerator for several days I saw zero signs of bacterial or mold growth. The leaks must have happened very shortly before delivery, so I was still able to use it.

James: I love it. Flavour absorbs nicely into chicken and seems to make it more moist. Wish the bottle was bigger for the money.
