If I could only use one spice the rest of my life, this would be it. It’s the perfect combination of spicy, raisin, smokey, and umami. Some of my favorite uses are on cauliflower or tomatoes and garlic, then roasting in the oven.
I'm familiar with a lot of chilies especially the Aleppo chili. However, this chili is one of a kind. Appears to have a fermented flavor profile in it. I get notes of something sweet like raisins, and a little heat. Haven't quite found how to use it appropriately but this is indeed an amazing product.
This is a wonderfully fragrant, very mild, pepper. It's great as a seasoning for roasted pork, or just sprinkled on hummus toast.
This stuff is SO great. I only recently discovered this pepper, and am seriously regretting all my years without it. Great mid-range heat for people who can't tolerate the super zingy stuff. So happy to find it here, might need to order by the pound!
