Crushed Red Pepper: Crushed red pepper is synonymous with heat. Its fiery kick adds intense spiciness to dishes, making it a favorite among those who appreciate bold flavors. While its heat can vary, it is generally hotter than paprika.

While smoked paprika gives a dish depth, sweet paprika is a classic staple and can be used in almost every dish alongside garlic and onion. Use the following spices instead to get the paprika flavor when you don’t have any on hand.

Crushed red pepper factories are responsible for processing and packaging the dried and crushed fruits of the Capsicum annuum plant, typically the cayenne pepper variety. These peppers are harvested when they are fully ripe and have developed their signature spicy flavor. The peppers are then dried and ground into flakes or powder, which are then packaged and sold to consumers.
