Cayenne chile powder is made from finely ground, hot red cayenne peppers, delivering bright, fiery heat with a slightly earthy flavor. With a Scoville rating of 30,000–50,000 and a medium heat level of 5/10, it’s a staple in many global cuisines, adding bold spice to soups, stews, sauces, marinades, and spice rubs. Use it sparingly to elevate dishes like chili, roasted vegetables, seafood, and meats, or blend it into spice mixes to bring a consistent, warming heat that enhances flavor without overpowering it.
