Historia y cultura
Named after the Syrian city of Aleppo, this pepper has seasoned Levantine kitchens for centuries. Farmers near the Turkish border cultivate the chilies, sun-dry them, then coarsely grind them. Conflict in Syria disrupted supply, prompting Turkish producers to grow similar peppers in Gaziantep and Şanlıurfa. Chefs worldwide adopted Aleppo flakes for their balanced heat, helping preserve demand during difficult years.
Notas sobre botánica y cultivo
▼
Grow Aleppo-type peppers in hot, dry climates. Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before transplanting. Provide full sun, well-drained soil, and minimal humidity to prevent rot. Plants reach 60 to 80 cm tall. Harvest when pods turn deep red, then sun-dry until leathery. Grind with a touch of salt and oil to achieve the signature texture.
