What it is

Aged red cayenne pepper is a variety of chili pepper that has been dried and aged. The aging process is thought to deepen its flavor and color. Cayenne peppers are native to South America but are now grown worldwide.

Why it's used

Cayenne pepper is primarily used as a spice to add heat and flavor to foods. It is commonly found in hot sauces, marinades, spice blends, and savory dishes like chili, stews, and curries. Manufacturers use it to enhance the taste profile of a wide range of products.

Health notes

Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, the compound responsible for its heat. Some research suggests capsaicin may have a role in metabolism and pain relief, but more studies are needed. The FDA generally recognizes cayenne pepper as safe (GRAS) when used as a spice. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated spices, but specific evaluations for aged cayenne pepper are not widely publicized.

Allergen info

Cayenne pepper is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
