About
Crushed chilli or Red Chilli Flakes are obtained by crushing ripe, dried fruits of capsicum.
Red Chilli Flakes are a vital ingrediant in pizzas all over the world.
They are usually added as a garnish along with oregano flakes to add a bit of spice to the pizza.
These are two terms for the same exact spice that’s created from crushing different varieties of red chili peppers, but most often with a base of cayenne pepper.
They are both also known as “pizza pepper” due, of course, to its prominence next to salt and pepper at pizza restaurants.
Dried chilli flakes or curshed chilli not only make a vibrant and flavourful garnish, but a great addition to bread doughs, schnitzel crumbs, sauces, homemade sausages, scrambled eggs, frittata, meatloaf, ragu and countless other dishes.
