Unpretentious Bird's Eye Chile Pepper Powder, Thai Chile, 50,000-100,000 SHU, 4 oz

Elevate Southeast Asian flavors with Unpretentious Bird's Eye Chile Pepper Powder

Unlock bright, crisp heat and a fruity aroma with this Thai chile powder. Housed in a convenient shaker jar, the 4 oz bottle is designed for quick adjustments in the moment, from a simmering curry to a hot finishing dust on eggs. Bird's Eye chiles, commonly known as Thai chiles, deliver a distinctive tropical-fruity warmth that pairs naturally with coconut milk, lime, garlic, lemongrass, and fresh herbs. The powder is designed to blend smoothly, offering a clean heat that lingers with a pleasant, peppery bite rather than overwhelming the dish.

Flavor and heat you can feel

The powder offers a fruity, slightly sweet profile with a robust kick. The heat level sits in the 50,000 to 100,000 SHU range, making it noticeably hotter than jalapeños and cayenne peppers. This combination gives you flexibility: a gentle touch to awaken a dish or a bolder dusting to define a final layer of heat and aroma. The finish tends to be bright and peppery, with a hint of tropical fruit that complements fresh lime zest and cilantro.
