10 reviews for Trader Joe’s Hot Hot Crispy Habanero Peppers in Olive Oil Reviews
Rated 5 out of 5

I was skeptical to buy these because they looked a little funky in the jar but I LOVE habanero peppers and all things spicy, so i went for it. WOW is all I can say- so happy I bought these! They somehow magically stay crispy even though they are in olive oil and just a few of them go a long way to add heat to a variety of dishes. So far my favorite ways to use them are in rice bowls or sauteed with veggies and vegan sausages…no hot sauce needed anymore with these bad boys!

These are super good! Like the other reviewer, I was a bit skeptical to buy them since they look sort of mushy or weird in the jar. (I also questioned how they could really be ‘crispy’ with the look and being in a jar of olive oil or whatever.) But to my surprise, they really are crispy! Also, a little goes a LONG way with these due to the heat, so I think the jar can last quite awhile. I mixed some into a bowl of veggie nuggets and rice, and it added the perfect little crunch and pop of heat. If you like spicy stuff, definitely recommended! I plan on using them as an add-on in stuff like stir fry bowls regularly going forward.

This is the best habanero peppers crispy in a jar. I am so sad that I cannot find this anymore in any of the Traders Joe (TJ). I went to two TJ close to me and they were none to be had. When are you guys going to have more of this Crispy Habanero Peppers in Olive Oil jars again. Please be soon.

To Janet’s point above, anyone know if this has been discontinued? It was at my local Trader Joe’s for about a month, but they haven’t had it in about two months since, and I’m starting to wonder if it’s just temporary or permanent.

I am officially addicted to this crisp. At first it was good and I would use it occasionally. Now I want to put it on everything. It is very spicy in a most perfect way and adds a little bit of texture. I hope it isn’t discontinued.

TJ’s nails it once more! I too was skeptical at the beginning. but since i love very spicy food, i bought one jar. it was all gone in 3 days! went back and bought 6 more.
as another reviewer had mentioned I put it on most everything. from rice dishes to avocado toast. this definitely is potent, but if you like some ‘kick’ to your food, this now has become my go to choice. i hope they do not discontinue it!

I now love two jars of crispy crunchy spicy things from Traders. These tiny habaneros are delicious and stay very crispy. I am only beginning to add them to every dish!

I was very happy to see this back on shelves but the “new” batch does not seem to be nearly as hot. Anything beyond a pinch used to be pure fire, now I find I can mix in a lot more and it is still not the same burn as what I bought last winter.
