Crushed Aleppo Chiles

Use our Aleppo seasoning pepper where you'd typically add crushed pepper flakes! Sprinkle Aleppo chiles on your favorite pizza, or throw into salads for extra zest and spice. Try Aleppo peppers in chili, or mix into sauces, marinades or condiments.

Crushed red pepper still has a place in our kitchen, but Aleppo flakes are our go-to now. We sprinkle it on wood-fired pizzas from our backyard barrel oven. Janet likes to add a light sprinkle to her avocado toast for extra flavor without too much heat, and I like it as a spicy topping on top of homemade hummus.
