These Aleppo-Style Red Chile Flakes conjure the flavors of northern Syria, and more specifically the long-inhabited city of Aleppo. Popular in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, the bright, fruity flavor of these chile flakes is an ideal way to add heat and flavor to any dish.
Traditionally used to flavor kabobs and other grilled meats, Aleppo-Style Red Chile Flakes are also used to flavor beans, salads, and muhammara, a spread made from chiles, ground walnuts, breadcrumbs, and olive oil. Relatively unknown outside of Syria and other parts of the Middle East until the late 20th century, Aleppo-Style Chile Flakes have risen to popularity in the United States thanks to their flavor and versatility.
Aleppo-Style Red Chile Flakes pair well with grilled meats and vegetables, and make a delicious addition to tomato-based sauces for pasta or pizza. They can also be used as a table condiment in the place of regular red chiles, and make an excellent addition to chocolate-based sweets, including rich cakes, mousses, hot chocolate or brownies.
