From Mild to Wild: Discover our Chilli Range
The chilli is a truly remarkable ingredient, known and loved globally for the sensation of heat it creates, a heat that imparts itself fantastically in so many applications. Chillies have become an essential ingredient in the food and beverage industry and help provide interesting and complex taste experiences which consumers around the world are demanding.
Yet in more recent times, growing demand for authentic global cuisines such as Korean, Mexican and Pan Asian – and the complex heat that these cooking styles can deliver – is driving a wave of newfound interest in chilli varietals from both shoppers and diners alike.
