Similar in taste to red pepper flakes but with added complexity and flavor.

Aleppo pepper is slightly sweet with a moderate heat level and bright, fruity accents. It is very popular in Middle Eastern cuisine. Though not as commonplace in the United States, it is typically used as an alternative to red pepper flakes. 

Use while grilling meats and veggies, in fresh salads or even as a unique ingredient in homebrewed beer. We also love it on pizza and in homemade tomato sauce.
