Dried Bird's Eye Chilli: Intense Heat & Vibrant Flavour
The Fiery Heart of Southeast Asian Cuisine
Unlock the explosive heat and distinctive flavour of our Dried Bird's Eye Chillies. Known as Prik Kee Noo in Thailand and a staple across Southeast Asia, these small, potent chillies pack a powerful punch that is both immediate and intense. Don't let their size fool you—they deliver a sharp, clean heat (50,000-100,000 SHU) with a slightly fruity, smoky undertone that forms the foundational spice for countless iconic dishes.
Ideal for grinding into flakes, blending into pastes, or infusing into oils, these dried chillies offer a more complex, concentrated flavour than fresh alternatives, making them an essential tool for authentic Asian cooking.
Why Choose Our Bird's Eye Chillies?
Intense, Clean Heat: Delivers a sharp, immediate spiciness that is central to Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesian cuisines.
Complex Flavour Profile: Offers more than just heat, with subtle fruity and smoky notes that deepen when dried.
Versatile Form: Can be used whole for infusing, crushed for texture, or ground into a fine powder for even distribution.
Long Shelf Life: Dried chillies retain their potency for months, always ready to add a kick to your cooking.
Authentic Ingredient: The non-negotiable, traditional chilli for dishes like Thai Green Curry and Vietnamese Pho.
Popular Ways to Use Bird's Eye Chillies:
Spice Pastes: A key component in authentic Thai curry pastes (Green, Red, and Panang).
Chilli Flakes & Powder: Grind to create homemade, intensely hot seasoning.
Infused Oils & Vinegars: Steep in oil or vinegar to create a fiery condiment.
Soups & Broths: Add whole or crushed to Pho, Tom Yum, and other soups.
Stir-fries & Sambals: Crush and add to wok dishes or Indonesian sambal for authentic heat.
Handle with Care: We recommend using gloves when handling these chillies, and avoid touching your eyes or face. Start with a small amount—you can always add more heat, but you can't take it away!
Store in a cool, dark, dry place in an airtight container.
