I use them every where I like a smokey-heat such as pizza, chili or pasta as you have done.<br /><br />Here's another view of this pepper.

This jar isn't going to last long....Williams Sonoma also has it. Pretty soon I'm sure we will find them at Publix!

Yes, I have fallen head-over-heels in love with Aleppo pepper flakes and can not do without them. Thanks for the mention. I've learned a lot from you about why the Aleppo tastes so good. They are vastly different from red pepper flakes and a lot more "friendly" if you will. Hope you have a wonderful Easter and I will definitely check out World Market. I never thought to look for them there.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-45193417326546420712016-03-24T12:16:07.863-04:002016-03-24T12:16:07.863-04:00Deviled eggs here are served for Easter and picnic...Deviled eggs here are served for Easter and picnics as canapes. I've always served mine with paprika too. This time with Aleppo is a first. Like the paprika it gives it a kick. And don't forget caviar on top! if you can get it and feel generous.<br /><br />As to peeling the eggs, run them under cold water as you peel them. It also helps if you shake them around in the pan (without water) to start the cracking.lindaraxahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721286284279902181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-3364933580947489122016-03-24T12:09:20.415-04:002016-03-24T12:09:20.415-04:00I don't know Jim, this was so different.

Thinking of trying it next with a bloody Mary...<br /><br />I am not a pepper expert and just getting acquainted with the Mexican peppers. I know enough though to stay away from Habaneros which are at the top of the heat scale!!!lindaraxahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721286284279902181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-81230692775740318442016-03-24T12:04:49.698-04:002016-03-24T12:04:49.698-04:00When things are cooked with so much heat that chok...When things are cooked with so much heat that chokes you I spend more time getting over it than tasting the underlying food. This was a different sensation. The Balenciaga of peppers. If you can't find it in your neck o the woods let me know and I will send you some.

The point about heat which dissipates instead of lingering and nearly choking, is what sold me. But then you could sell me the Brooklyn Bridge with your persuasive charms... <br /><br />Happy Easter dear J.Toby Worthingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04494294732826925579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-45392057292896884132016-03-24T02:57:35.417-04:002016-03-24T02:57:35.417-04:00Those Aleppo pepper flakes look a lot like the mil...Those Aleppo pepper flakes look a lot like the mild Korean ones--I don't know if the flavors are similar. There are many kinds of hot peppers available here--the only rule is to taste before you use, even if you have bought that brand before. <br /><br />There are also innumerable hot pastes, sauces, etc. with which to experiment. Even with so much variety, there is no substitute for Hungarian paprika, or for Tabasco-brand hot sauce. <br />--JimParnassushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958901307538141468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-22360884882970849802016-03-24T00:38:42.732-04:002016-03-24T00:38:42.732-04:00A friend who gives rather good drink parties here ...A friend who gives rather good drink parties here serves devilled eggs as canapes, but not with Aleppo pepper, as far as I am aware - and by the sound of it, I would be. Certainly with paprika. We do have a good spice source here, but I'm not sure Aleppo would be in it. Unfortunate references, given the current turmoil in the city, but that's by the by. I am more intrigued by your egg boiling method, and must try it. I make egg mayonnaise for toasted Bavarian bread for lunch, and as it's mashed, it doesn't much matter, but my egg pealing is not always successful, (as in the potentially soft porcelain looking beauty seems as though it has suffered a bad dose of plastic surgery). columnisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764365428633038329noreply@blogger.com
