Dried chilli flakes are a versatile seasoning made from finely crushed, dried red chili peppers. Popular in global cuisines such as Italian, Mexican, and Asian dishes, these fiery flakes add a robust heat and depth of flavor to pizzas, pasta, curries, marinades, and more. Packed with capsaicin, the compound responsible for their spiciness, they offer potential health benefits such as boosting metabolism and reducing inflammation. Chilli flakes are rich in antioxidants and vitamins like A, C, and E, which support immune health and combat free radicals. However, their intense heat may not be suitable for everyone and could irritate sensitive stomachs or exacerbate acid reflux. With virtually no calories or fat, they’re a great way to add a healthy kick to meals, provided they are used in moderation, especially for those with dietary sensitivities. Their bold flavor and nutritional perks make them a favorite spice in kitchens worldwide.
