Also known as crushed red pepper flakes, these are dried and crushed red chili peppers that can add heat to dishes. They can be used as a garnish, sprinkled over dishes, or stirred into sauces. The level of heat depends on the type of chili used, with cayenne being the most common. Some chili flakes, like ancho and pasilla, can be gently toasted to release their oils and flavor before use.
