The Spice Kit Company Double Cut Crushed Red Pepper – 12 oz. Medium-Hot, Virtually No Seeds for Even Coverage

The Spice Kit Company Double Cut Crushed Red Pepper is a 12 oz. jar of medium-hot, seed-reduced red pepper flakes designed for even seasoning and bold flavor.

Whether you’re finishing a pizza, seasoning a pasta, or adding an extra kick to a weekday stir-fry, this double-cut crushed red pepper offers a consistent texture and warm heat without the nuisance of excess seeds. Made with a proprietary process that minimizes seeds and a secondary cut that creates smaller flakes, these pepper flakes distribute evenly across food and cling better to sauces, doughs, and salads.

How does the double-cut make a difference when seasoning?

The double-cut technique creates finer flakes than typical crushed peppers, so each shake delivers more surface area and a more uniform spread. Finer flakes integrate into dishes more smoothly, reducing the chance of concentrated spicy spots.

• Smaller, consistent flake size for even coverage
• Better adhesion to saucy or oily foods
• Smoother mouthfeel without large, hard pieces
• More reliable portion control from the shaker

Why does 'virtually no seeds' matter in crushed pepper?

Seeds can add visual bulk and a dry, bland texture that interferes with the pepper’s flavor. This product’s seed-reduction process concentrates the flavorful flesh and spice, so you taste the pepper and not extra, tasteless particles.

• Cleaner look and texture on finished dishes
• Less clogging of shaker lids and grinder openings
• Improved flavor focus—more heat, less filler
• Easier to sprinkle onto delicate or finely textured foods

How hot is the medium heat level, and how do I use it?

The blend is labeled medium hot to balance warmth with everyday usability—enough to notice but not overpower most recipes. Use it as a finishing spice or while cooking to lift flavors in sauces, soups, vegetables, and meats.

• Shake over pizza, pasta, and flatbreads for even heat
• Stir into sauces or vinaigrettes for a consistent kick
• Sprinkle on roasted vegetables or grilled proteins for enhancement
• Mix with oil for a quick infused drizzle

How should I store it and how long will it stay fresh?

Keep the jar sealed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve aroma and color. When stored properly, crushed red pepper maintains good flavor for many months, though the spice’s intensity naturally mellows over time.

• Seal jar tightly after each use
• Store in a pantry or cupboard, not above the stove
• Avoid humid environments to prevent clumping
• Rotate older jars first to enjoy peak freshness

Who is this for? Home cooks, pizzerias, and foodie gift shoppers who want a dependable, easy-to-sprinkle crushed red pepper will appreciate this 12 oz. offering. It’s ideal for people who favor even seasoning without gritty seeds—chefs who finish plates quickly, families who want predictable heat levels, and anyone looking for a thoughtfully packaged, flavorful addition to their spice rack.
