What it is

Organic Jalapeno Pepper Powder is made from dried, ground organic jalapeno peppers. Jalapenos are a medium-hot chili pepper variety, originating from Mexico, commonly used to add a spicy flavor to foods.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use this powder primarily as a flavoring agent to impart a distinct spicy, slightly fruity taste. It is frequently found in savory snacks like chips, pretzels, popcorn, and crackers, as well as in spice blends and marinades.

Health notes

Jalapeno pepper powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. Capsaicin, the compound that gives chili peppers their heat, is being studied for potential health effects, though evidence is mixed and more research is needed. JECFA has evaluated capsaicinoids and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified).

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Jalapeno peppers are botanically fruits and are not related to the 9 FDA major allergens. Gluten-free.
