Dried Whole Chilli 1 kg – Pure Fire, Colour, and Aroma for Authentic NZ Cooking

1. Description

Few spices command as much respect in the kitchen as chilli. Bold, vibrant, and full of character, it turns ordinary dishes into unforgettable experiences. Our Dried Whole Chilli 1 kg pack delivers that unmistakable balance of heat, colour, and aroma prized by professional chefs and adventurous home cooks throughout New Zealand.

Each chilli is hand-picked at peak ripeness, then naturally sun-dried to preserve its essential oils, bright crimson hue, and smoky fragrance. Unlike crushed or powdered varieties that fade over time, whole chillies retain their potency and full spectrum of flavour — from the initial fruity sweetness to the slow-building burn that defines quality spice.

Whether you’re crafting authentic curries, spicing up a Kiwi barbecue, or preparing infused oils, Dried Whole Chilli 1 kg gives you the versatility and consistency you need. The chillies are uniform in size and colour, dried under strict hygiene standards, and packaged to keep their fiery freshness locked in until the moment you cook.

From Field to Flavour – Naturally Grown, Expertly Dried

Our chillies are sourced from trusted growers who specialise in Capsicum annuum varieties celebrated for their balanced heat and aroma. After harvest, they’re cleaned, air-dried under natural sunlight, and packed without artificial colours or preservatives. The result is a premium-grade chilli that embodies everything true spice lovers value — purity, power, and performance.

Whether rehydrated, roasted, or ground, these chillies release deep flavour and visual appeal that make any meal look and taste professionally prepared.
