Chili Flakes – Baklouti Style | Organic
Price range: $7.99 through $20.99
We are so excited to offer these chili flakes that we source from small farms in Tunisia. Baklouti chilies are traditionally used in Harissa (and are in our organic Harissa), and are traditionally grown in Northern Africa where they are an essential ingredient. These chili flakes have quite a bit of heat and a very sweet undertone that is reminiscent of dried cherries. The heat lasts for a good amount of time but is not overwhelming. They mix well with olive oil, and will work great in marinades, sauces, on top of pizza and of course in harissa. We also carry more traditional Crushed Red Chili Flakes that we source from Sri Lanka.

I like these. The flavor is extremely similar to regular Red Chili Flakes, but I’m not sure if it’s as hot. Looking up it says the Scoville Rating is much lower (2k-5k compared to 30k-50k for Cayenne used in Regular Red Chili Flakes).
The description mentions a sweet taste and I did notice that a bit with these.
Overall I like these a lot and unfortunately missed out on getting another 16oz package, and it says it’s Sold Out… So I hope that doesn’t mean these are going to be sold out for good now(since it doesn’t say back-ordered), hopefully they get restocked, because they are good!
