This deep red chili pepper flake exudes a wonderfully complex array of flavor that is fruity with a musty smokiness that is never bitter or acidic.
Because Marash is relatively high in essential oil, it can feel almost wet to the touch; I believe it is this unique characteristic that conveys all that great flavor. It seems to be exceptionally well balanced. It is slightly hot, with a nice complex flavor that never overwhelms. Whether you like to make nuanced sophisticated dishes, love to grill or enjoy a well dressed plate, this chili will probably change the way you use chilies!
Try using Marash in your favorite marinade...it seems to work a kind of alchemy with meats and densely textured fish like sturgeon. Dust over grilled shrimp. Or add just a touch to roasted chicken and watch it disappear.
Once you try it, you will understand why its presence is mandatory at the Turkish table. It's a favorite of our local chefs too!
