Our summery, spicy Silk Chili Flakes come from Kahramanmaras, Turkey. Use in any recipe calling for marash pepper or Aleppo pepper — this will become your new favorite chili flake.
Silk Chili is botanically identical to the Aleppo pepper, which has been cultivated in Syria for centuries. Due to the ongoing violence of the Syrian civil war, true Aleppo chili is unfortunately no longer available for import.
Our Silk Chili Flakes are naturally preserved with a little bit of salt and sunflower seed oil to keep them fresh and flavorful. They have a warm, tomato-like flavor and a medium heat, similar to Espelette and Korean chilis. Use in any dish in need of a little excitement, from scrambled eggs to burgers to brownies. Perfect for cooking or finishing.
Cooking Tips: Sprinkle over pasta or pizza. Add to soups and stews. Use in a fresh fruit salad. Garnish meat and veggies

Burlap & Barrel is a Public Benefit Corporation building new international spice supply chains that are equitable, transparent and traceable. We’re working to build an equitable food system—one that values skilled farmers and ends exploitation. We source our spices directly from small farms and cooperatives, building long-term relationships that improve quality and increase farmers’ earnings. By skipping brokers, we keep the supply chain short and transparent.
Most conversations about food sustainability focus on the environment or animal welfare—but often overlook the people behind our food. We believe true sustainability must also account for the livelihoods of the farmers who power global food systems. By sourcing single origin ingredients, we highlight the unique places they come from—and the skilled farmers who grow them with care and intention.
