Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder

Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder

Bring colour and chilli flavour to your cooking with Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder. Kashmiri chilli powder is commonly chosen for its red colour and generally gentler heat compared with many hot chilli powders. Heat can vary, so start with a small amount and adjust to taste rather than assuming it is heat-free.

Choose Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder in the 400g or 1000g (1kg) size according to your cooking needs. Keep it alongside your everyday spices for preparing curries, vegetable dishes and marinades.

Ingredients and Product Information

Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder is listed as a ground chilli spice. The complete manufacturer ingredient declaration has not been verified for these packs. Refer to the supplied packaging for exact ingredients, any additives, allergen and cross-contact information, country of origin and dietary suitability. The name describes the spice style and does not, by itself, confirm where the chillies were grown.

How to Use

In Curries, Dal and Vegetables

Add a small amount to your cooking base with the other spices, following your recipe. When adding ground chilli to hot oil, keep the heat controlled and stir briefly before adding tomatoes, water or another moist ingredient. Avoid scorching the powder, which can make the dish taste bitter. Cook through and taste before adding more.

In Marinades

Mix Eastern Kashmiri Chilli Powder with the oil, yoghurt or other liquid specified in your recipe, then combine with the remaining seasonings. Use the marinade for vegetables, paneer, meat or other ingredients as appropriate to the recipe. Follow suitable food-handling and cooking instructions for the food being prepared.

Adjusting Colour and Heat

Use a recipe developed for Kashmiri chilli powder as your starting point. Do not substitute the same quantity of a hotter chilli powder without adjusting it. Build up the amount gradually to suit the dish and your preferred level of chilli flavour.

Storage

Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and steam. Use a clean, dry spoon and close the pack promptly after use. Follow the storage instructions and best-before date on the packaging.
