Kashmiri chilli powder is distinctively red with a gentle, sweet heat and fruity notes. This powder flavours a number of dishes due to its mild heat, measuring between 9000 to 15000 SHU on the Scoville scale. Featured in Rick Stein’s “India” cookbook, which is a handy tool for recreating Indian dishes.
Unsurprisingly, Kashmiri Chilli powder is used just as much for its food colouring properties as it is for its heat and flavour profile. The deep, vibrant red hue is thanks to the high levels of a pigment called “capsanthin” that’s found in this ingredient.
Grown in the Kashmir region where cool temperatures and mineral-rich shape their unique flavour profile, the chillies are harvested during winter once fully ripe and mature. Next, they’re sun-dried until crisp and brittle before being ground into our fine Kashmir chilli powder.
Kashmiri chillies are extremely popular in Indian cuisine. It is typically used for traditional Tandoori dishes, Rogan Josh or Keralan Fish Curries. Try adding into mild curries like Pasanda and Korma for a fruity, spicy kick or give our Kashmiri Lamb recipe a go!

High quality product, rich and pure! I really like the small sizes of all the products from this company, these are my go to for all spices and I’ve thrown away existing ones to replace them with these great new spices. Thankyou for taking the time to stock organic versions too, I really appreciate that! Great company and will be recommending to everyone, my kitchen experience has been transformed, its amazing what fresh quality spices can add to a dish.
Verified ownerI searched high and low for gluten free spices and was very disappointed with the range in Ireland. I placed my order and they arrived swiftly. I am very impressed with the entire service I received, from the website to the arrival of my spices.
Verified owneruse sparingly as this is hot lovely depth of flavour perfect for curries
