Cayenne chili | crushed | 1-3 mm | without seed | red | Scoville Units: 10.000-15.000

What is it? / Product description

Discover cayenne chili as bright red, coarsely crushed chili flakes without seeds, with a heat level of around 10,000–15,000 Scoville. The slender pods from China are carefully selected and gently processed for Biova, resulting in a uniform, professional spice for kitchens and gastronomy.

The grain size of approx. 1–3 mm ensures that the heat can be easily dosed and distributed evenly throughout the dish. Thanks to the largely seedless composition, the chili flakes look clean, are less bitter, and as Biova bulk goods are ideal for large-scale consumers, manufactories and demanding home cooks.

Whether in stews, soups, marinades or chili con carne – cayenne chili can be used with precision and gives dishes a clearly defined, warming heat. The coarsely crushed red chili flakes are also a practical solution in kilo units for grill rubs, dips or vegetable stir-fries.

Origin

The chilies come from China, where the warm, sunny climate allows for even ripening. This enables the fruits to develop their intense red color and a consistent heat level, which is regularly monitored for Biova.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The cayenne pods grow on low shrubs and are harvested at full ripeness. After drying, they are gently crushed until the desired coarse grain size of 1–3 mm is reached, with the seeds largely removed.

Special features

Compared to fine powder, these granulated, coarsely crushed chili flakes retain structure and bite and release heat and aroma gradually. The strong red color creates visual highlights, while the bulk format in kilo units offers an economical solution for professional users.

Differences in origin and processing

Depending on the growing region, cayenne chilies can vary in aroma and heat; Chinese produce is known for its reliable heat level within the 20,001–100,000 SHU category. Controlled drying and targeted crushing without seeds distinguish this Biova product from simple, heavily powdered chili blends.

Taste & aroma

Cayenne chili offers a direct, fiery heat with a slightly smoky and subtly bitter note. The aroma is typically chili-spicy, and thanks to the coarse structure, color and flavor are well preserved even during cooking.

• Seasoning chili con carne, goulash, minced meat and stew dishes in kitchens and gastronomy
