Slightly hotter than our brighter Aleppo chili, the Marash or Maras chili is a perfect choice for oily fish or gamely stews.
Like Aleppo chili, Marash hints of fruitiness but is more alkaline which gives it a sophisticated mellowing effect. I like to use it with eggplant or in dishes that use a lot of cumin ( which tends to be slightly lemony).
This chili is an excellent one to have on hand as it always seems to add a nice flavor without overpowering or adding any bitterness to a delicate dish. For those who love a little spice without harshness, this chili is your pick.
