Introduction
One of the great things about crushed red pepper is that it can easily be added to any type of pizza. Whether you're a fan of classic pepperoni, veggie-loaded, or gourmet combinations, a sprinkle of crushed red pepper can take your pizza to the next level. The heat of the pepper complements the richness of the cheese and the savory toppings, creating a delicious and satisfying flavor profile.
Red chilies are part of the capsicum family. However, they are different from bell peppers, being thinner and narrower and come in a variety of sizes, length, breadth and colors. When they grow they may be green, red or yellow. Usually, when dried or aged, many of the green varieties turn red, though yellow pepper is different.
