Product Description
What is Ground Chilli Powder? Cayenne pepper powder is a spice derived from dried and ground cayenne peppers, which belong to the Capsicum genus. Named after the city of Cayenne in French Guiana, these thin and elongated chili peppers are known for their fiery heat, courtesy of the active compound capsaicin. The vibrant red powder extracted from these peppers is a staple in kitchens globally, celebrated for its versatile and pungent flavor profile. With a Scoville Heat Unit ranging from 40,000 to 60,000, cayenne pepper adds a moderate to high level of spiciness to dishes. Its slightly sweet and fruity notes, coupled with an earthy undertone, make it a sought-after ingredient in various culinary traditions. Cayenne pepper is commonly used in spice blends, soups, stews, sauces, and marinades, contributing both heat and depth of flavor.
