About Red chilli powder

Red chilli powder is a vibrant spice made from dried, ground red chilli peppers, widely used in global cuisines, particularly Indian, Mexican, and Southeast Asian. It brings bold heat and color to dishes, ranging in intensity depending on the variety of peppers used. Rich in vitamins A and C, red chilli powder serves as an excellent source of antioxidants, supporting immunity and skin health. It contains capsaicin, the compound responsible for its spicy kick, which may aid metabolism, pain relief, and cardiovascular health when consumed in moderation. However, excessive use can irritate the digestive system or prompt discomfort for sensitive individuals. Often free from added fillers, quality red chilli powder is a pure ingredient that enhances flavor and nutritional value. With a distinctive taste and numerous health benefits, it’s a versatile and potent addition to any spice collection.
