Aleppo Flakes
Aleppo Flakes bring a warm, flavorful heat without overpowering your food. Originally associated with northern Syria near the city of Aleppo, these deep red chile flakes have a fruity, slightly earthy flavor with mild cumin-like notes and a subtle tangy, salty finish.
Use them anywhere you’d normally reach for crushed red pepper—on grilled meats, roasted vegetables, eggs, pizza, hummus, pasta, potatoes, or even avocado toast. The heat is moderate, making Aleppo Flakes especially good when you want flavor first and heat second.
