Badia Red Cayenne Pepper Ground Spice, 16 oz

Pure ground cayenne with sharp, clean heat and a deep red color. The standard hot pepper for adding fire without changing the flavor profile of a dish.

Common Uses

Build dry rubs for ribs, brisket, and wings. Stir into chili, gumbo, jambalaya, and étouffée. Add to hot sauce, buffalo sauce, and salsa. Dust over deviled eggs, hummus, and elote. Season fried chicken dredge and breading mixes. Spike marinades, soups, and bean dishes by the quarter-teaspoon.

Pantry Role

The dial for controlling heat across every cuisine. A small amount goes a long way, which is why it earns a spot next to salt and pepper rather than buried in the spice drawer.

Pro Tip

Bloom cayenne in hot oil or butter for ten seconds before adding other ingredients — heat releases the capsaicin and spreads it evenly through the dish instead of leaving hot pockets.
