Description
Tabasco Red Chilli Powder is made from the famous Tabasco pepper, originally from the USA and known for its sharp, lively heat and bright pepper flavour.
Unlike heavier smoky chillies, Tabasco delivers a clean, fast heat that lifts sauces, soups and seasoning blends.
This fine chilli powder is excellent in Cajun cooking, seafood dishes, chicken wings, marinades and spicy sauces.
It also works well sprinkled into chilli con carne, tomato-based dishes and dressings where a crisp chilli kick is wanted.
