Sweet pepper flakes with no heat to hide behind
We earn a commission. It never changes the price you pay.
Jimmy Nardello peppers dried and crushed into flakes, all sweetness and fruit, no capsaicin burn to mask what you’re actually tasting. Use it where you want pepper flavor without the sting: folded into softened butter, scattered over a finished pasta, worked into a marinade for chicken thighs. The color holds, a deep brick red, so it reads on the plate as well as it tastes. A small jar earns a spot next to the chili flakes you already use for heat, because sometimes you want the fruit and none of the fire. Keep it near the stove, not in the back of the cabinet.
Price we've observed
Every point is a price this site read on the maker's own page on the day shown. It is not a market low, and it is not scraped from a price tracker — it is only what we have seen ourselves. Today's price is the lowest we've recorded.
Most pepper flakes on a line are there for heat, and you reach for them the same way every time. This one does something different: it gives you the vegetal, fruity side of pepper without asking your dish to handle spice. That earns it a spot on stations where sweetness and color matter more than punch, finishing plates, dressing a crudo, or waking up a simple vinaigrette. It is a flavor tool, not a heat tool, and having both on the rail means you are not stuck compensating with sugar or acid when what you actually wanted was pepper.
