Angel Hair Chilli
Angel hair chilli is one of the more visually arresting dried chillies you can buy. These impossibly fine, thread-like strands are cut from whole Capsicum annuum peppers after harvest and sun-dried to preserve their vivid colour and concentrated flavour. At 5/10 on the Scoville scale (roughly 30,000 SHU), they sit comfortably above Espelette pepper but well below bird's eye — enough heat to make their presence known without overwhelming a dish.
The strands work across a wide range of cooking. They bring warmth and colour to soups, stews, sauces and terrines, lift a simple salad, and make a striking garnish for finished plates. They're particularly good fried briefly in oil with prawns, garlic and spring onion, or crumbled over noodles and rice dishes. A small pinch goes a long way.
Producer: Terre Exotique, a French spice house founded on a pepper plantation in Cameroon. The company sources directly from growers worldwide and processes at its facility in France, maintaining close relationships with producers to ensure traceability and quality across its range.
Storage: Ambient. Store in an airtight container away from direct sunlight.
