Chili Pepper

Chili Pepper: Versatile Heat from Mild to Fiery

Chili pepper is a staple in kitchens worldwide, valued for its ability to transform recipes with both flavour and heat. At Vehgroshop, our selection includes chili powder (Kids and Mild), crushed chili flakes (spicy and mild), chili granules, and the fiery bird’s eye chili. This wide range of formats and heat levels ensures every buyer can find the most suitable chili pepper product for their production.

The Scoville Heat Unit Scale (SHU)

The intensity of chili heat is measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The SHU scale is the international standard for comparing chili heat. This index measures capsaicin concentration, with a lower SHU indicating mild heat and higher values pointing to fiery spice.

Vehgroshop specifies SHU for all chili products, making it easier for chefs and producers to achieve consistent results in their soups, sauces, marinades, and recipes. Mild chili powder may measure only a few thousand SHU, while bird’s eye chili can reach between 90,000 and 200,000 SHU. 

Product Range and Culinary Uses

• Chili powder : Finely ground, easy to use in sauces, rubs, or spice mixes.

• Crushed chili flakes (Kids, Spicy): Add heat, texture, and colour, perfect for pizzas, stir-fries, and marinades.

• Bird’s Eye Chili (whole): Small but powerful chilies, widely used in Asian cuisines for bold and fiery recipes.

Chili peppers are more than just spice. Powder distributes heat evenly, flakes contribute appearance and texture, granules provide accurate dosing, and bird’s eye chili adds instant punch. This flexibility makes chili peppers a suitable condiment for countless global recipes.

Culinary Benefits in Professional Kitchens

Chili peppers are used extensively across cuisines to enhance flavour depth. They appear in tomato sauces, soups, and spice blends, and are essential in marinades for meat, fish, and plant-based dishes. By mixing different formats, professionals can create layers of flavour and control both taste and appearance. For instance, powder may be used in a base sauce, while flakes are added at the end for extra bite and visual appeal.

How to Store Dried Chili?

To maintain colour and pungency, chili products should be stored in a cool, dry place. Properly stored, they keep for several months or longer, ensuring stable flavour in production.
