Product Specification Summary

How to Style and Use Your Culinary Chili Threads in the Kitchen

Using these delicate pepper threads is an effortless way to impress dinner guests or add a chef-inspired flourish to weeknight dinners. Simply take a small pinch of the fine strands using culinary tweezers or your fingers and drape them gently over steaming bowls of ramen, rich broths, savory noodle dishes, avocado toast, or roasted Kitchen & Bar creations just before serving. Because the threads are sensitive to extreme moisture in storage, keep them sealed tightly in a cool, dark pantry space to preserve their striking color and aromatic depth for months to come.
