Gryffon Ridge Heat Collection

Korean Chile Pepper Flakes

Also known as Gochugaru, this chile is an indispensable element of Korean cuisine, especially Kimchee.  It has a fruity flavor with a pronounced bite and is a great substitute for regular chile flakes. Non-Organic.

Aleppo Pepper

Also known as Halaby Pepper, Aleppo Pepper has a moderate heat and a high oil content that doesn’t overpower its fruitiness.  It has a deliciously deep, aromatic flavor and is a wonderful substitute for traditional chile flakes.

Blackening Seasoning

This is just the thing to pan-blacken fish, chicken, pork, or beef. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Brush your food with oil and thickly encrust it with Blackening Seasoning mixed with salt to taste. Pan fry for 1-2 minutes per side or until desired done-ness is reached.

Contains: Paprika, Cayenne, Garlic, Black Pepper, White Pepper, Thyme, Jalapeno, Mustard, and Oregano.

Jamaican “Jerk” Seasoning

Traditionally used as a coating for goat and pork, this mild Jamaican “Jerk” Seasoning is perfect for enjoying Jerk flavor without intense heat. If you’re missing that intense heat, though, spice it up with the chile of your choice; a Scotch Bonnet or Habanero would be traditional.

Contains: Mustard Seed, Ginger, Garlic, Paprika, Chile Powder, Fennel Seed, Thyme, Allspice, Onion, Black Pepper, Cayenne, Cassia Cinnamon, and Cloves.

Vindaloo Masala

Native to the Indian Island of Goa, vindaloo is traditionally a fiery hot dish made with vinegar and pork. It’s just as delicious with whatever your choice of protein is, and this relatively mild version leaves the heat up to you. Add additional cayenne to liven things up.

Contains: Cumin Seed, Coriander Seed, Cayenne, Brown Mustard Seed, Paprika, Garlic, Fenugreek, Cassia Cinnamon, Cloves, Black Pepper, Turmeric, Green Cardamom, and Ginger.

Sichuan Seasoning

The unique flavor and tingly numbness of the Sichuan peppercorns combine with the flavors of the Spice Trail to create a blend that perfectly complements chicken, duck, pork, and seafood. Use as a dry rub or as seasoning for a stir fry.

Contains: Sichuan Pepper, Ginger, Onion, Garlic, Nutmeg, Star Anise, Cloves, and Cassia Cinnamon.
