Description
Red Hot Jen Feng Pepper Flakes are an exceptionally fiery crushed red chilli, delivering intense heat and a bold, concentrated pepper flavour. With an estimated heat of approximately 200,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), these powerful chilli flakes are designed for those who enjoy a seriously hot chilli kick.
Unlike milder crushed chillies, where sweetness and aromatic flavour often take centre stage, Hot Jen Feng delivers a much more intense experience. The flavour is robust, peppery and savoury, with subtle earthy undertones before the heat develops into a powerful, lingering burn.
Flavour and Heat
At approximately 200,000 SHU, Red Hot Jen Feng sits towards the upper end of the very hot chilli category, offering substantially more heat than traditional Cayenne, Thai Red or standard crushed red chilli flakes.
The heat develops quickly and persists, making these flakes particularly useful when a small quantity of chilli is required to bring considerable intensity to a dish.
Coarse Chilli Flakes – 1–3mm
Our Red Hot Jen Feng Pepper Flakes are produced from dried red chillies, crushed into approximately 1–3mm pieces.
The flakes include the natural chilli seeds, creating a traditional coarse texture with a mixture of red chilli skin and lighter-coloured seed fragments.
This versatile cut makes them suitable for adding directly to recipes, sprinkling over prepared dishes or incorporating into homemade sauces and seasoning blends.
Cooking with Red Hot Jen Feng
These fiery chilli flakes are particularly suited to hot sauces, spicy stir-fries, chilli oils, Chinese-style hot pots, curries, marinades and intensely spiced meat dishes.
They are also excellent for making extra-hot chilli crisp, spicy noodle dishes, fiery BBQ rubs and homemade chilli seasonings.
Because of their substantial heat, start with a small quantity and increase gradually until the desired level of heat is achieved.
