CountrySpices Red Chilli Powder
Place of origin: Meghalaya, India
Red Chilli powder is a spice that comes from a mild red pepper in the family Capsicum . Its flavour ranges from sweet and mild to hot, depending on the variety of pepper and whether the hotter seeds and spongy tissue are included. Red Chilli powder is equally valued for its taste and its bright red colour, derived from capsanthin
Culinary Uses:
- The rich colouring of Red Chilli powder not only enhances the visual appeal of foods, but it can also be used as a key flavouring.
- It goes well with just about any savoury food, including vegetable curries, stews, creamy sauces, pastas, pizzas, tomato dishes and salads.
- For most recipes, Chilli powder is added near the end of the cooking process, because heat diminishes both the colour and flavour.
- Chilli powder is useful as a simple garnish for almost any savoury dish. Sprinkle Chilli Flakes on potatoes or homemade fries.
Health Benefits:
