Why is dried chili one of the most used spices in the world?<\/h3>\n

It is quite common to think that chili should only be used fresh. Sure, fresh chili is great for instance in salsa and as a salad ingredient, but in addition to the heat, chili really adds no other flavors. Dried chili keeps well and retains its aroma for a long time, and the taste doesn\u00b4t change during storage.<\/p>\n

What can dried chili be used for?<\/h3>\n

The Meira chili product range with a variety of powders and flakes has been completed with new chili groats. Groats are great for modern dishes like quick-fried king crabs or potatoes that call for visible chili.<\/p>\n

To get the best aromas out of ground chili, heat it first in oil or butter for a couple of minutes. When baking a chocolate cake, add some chili flakes directly to melted chocolate – easy and delicious! Dried chili also adds a nice twist to hot drinks.<\/p>\n
