Crushed chillies, also known as red pepper flakes, are a spice made from dried and crushed chili peppers, typically a blend of various varieties like cayenne, ancho, and jalapeño. The flakes consist of small, irregular pieces of dried chili pepper skin, seeds, and flesh, varying in colour from deep red to orange with occasional yellowish or brown tones.
Crushed chillies offer a potent, sharp heat and a slightly smoky, fruity flavor, with the intensity depending on the blend and type of chili used. They’re often used as a seasoning to add heat and flavor to a wide range of dishes, including pizzas, pastas, sauces, soups, and marinades. The texture and vibrant colour of crushed chillies also make them a visually appealing garnish, adding a fiery kick to the final presentation of a dish.
