Red pepper
Red pepper is a vibrant and flavoursome ingredient that comes from a type of pepper plant. It is commonly used to add a spicy and slightly sweet taste to a variety of dishes. Red peppers can be found fresh, dried, or ground into a powder, making them versatile for different recipes.
To make red pepper powder, the peppers are harvested when ripe and then dried. Once dried, the peppers are ground into a fine powder consistency. This powder can be used to season dishes during cooking or added as a garnish at the end for an extra kick of flavour.
Red pepper appears on food labels because it enhances the taste of many dishes, adding a characteristic spiciness and depth of flavour. It can be found in a range of foods such as soups, sauces, marinades, and seasoning blends. Its presence in food can elevate the overall taste profile, making dishes more enjoyable for those who enjoy a bit of heat.
