This bright yellow Peruvian Aji Amarillo Sauce packs a red hot punch from these beautiful peruvian peppers. This recipe specifically calls for Peruvian Yellow Peppers. They are sweet, flavorful and have a huge kick. You can find these in most Hispanic markets either canned or frozen directly from Peru. I had found these in the frozen section of my local Vallarta supermarket here in Los Angeles.
