For those who crave serious heat in their cooking, Lioncroft's Extra Hot Chilli Powder is the ultimate choice. Produced from a specially selected variety of fiery dried red chillies with a significantly higher capsaicin content, this powder delivers an intense, bold heat that seasoned chilli lovers will truly appreciate. Despite its fierce character, the powder retains a genuine depth of chilli flavour beneath the heat, ensuring that dishes are not merely hot but genuinely complex and satisfying.

Extra Hot Chilli Powder is the preferred choice for cooking dishes where heat is meant to be the defining characteristic — think vindaloo curries, peri-peri marinades, extra-spicy Korean-inspired dishes, and fiery hot sauces. It is also used by professional caterers who need to dial up the heat in large-batch cooking without sacrificing flavour or colour. A little goes a remarkably long way, so even a small amount can transform an entire pot of curry or a marinade for an entire side of meat. Lioncroft recommends starting with a modest quantity and adjusting to taste, particularly for those less accustomed to very high heat levels. Stored in a cool, dry place, this vibrant powder retains its potency for a considerable time, making it a dependable, long-lasting addition to any spice collection built for those who refuse to compromise on heat.
