Spice profile

The tasting note.

Coarse crimson flakes with fruit before fire. The heat arrives late and evenly rather than in a spike, leaving room for the raisined, sun-dried sweetness that makes it work as a finishing flake on pasta, eggs and roast vegetables.

Sun-dried chillies and tart red fruit.

Aleppo- and Urfa-style chillies are dried differently — one bright and fruity, the other sweated overnight until dark, raisined and faintly smoky. Sumac grows on the same hillsides.
