FQS

What makes Calabrian chili flakes different from regular red pepper flakes?
Unlike generic crushed red pepper, Calabrian chili flakes come from a specific variety of pepper grown exclusively in Calabria, Southern Italy. They have a distinctive fruity, slightly smoky sweetness alongside their heat — a complexity you won't find in standard supermarket chili flakes.

How spicy are these chili flakes?
Calabrian chilies typically range from 25,000 to 40,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) — moderately hot, similar to cayenne. The heat is bold but balanced, with a pleasant burn that doesn't overwhelm the flavor.

Are these chili flakes certified and traceable?
Yes. L'Oro Del Sud Calabrian Chili Flakes are 100% certified single-origin, sourced exclusively from Calabria, Italy. No blends, no fillers — just pure, authentic peperoncino calabrese.

Is the 2.2 lb (1 kg) tub suitable for restaurants and food service?
Absolutely. The bulk 1 kg resealable tub is specifically designed for high-volume use in restaurants, pizzerias, catering operations, and food service kitchens. It's also available for wholesale ordering.

How should I store Calabrian chili flakes to keep them fresh?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The resealable tub helps preserve potency, color, and aroma. For best results, use within 12–18 months of opening.

Are these chili flakes vegan and gluten-free?
Yes. L'Oro Del Sud Calabrian Chili Flakes are 100% plant-based, vegan, vegetarian-friendly, and naturally gluten-free with no additives or preservatives.

What dishes can I use Calabrian chili flakes in?
The possibilities are endless — pizza, pasta (arrabbiata, aglio e olio), marinades, spicy olive oil, 'nduja, grilled meats, seafood, roasted vegetables, hot honey, dips, and charcuterie boards. Any dish that benefits from authentic Italian heat.
