Red Pepper Seasoning 

Fox’s Spices Red Bell Pepper Powder 500g is a sweet, mild seasoning that brings gentle pepper flavour and a warm red colour to everyday cooking. Made from red bell peppers rather than hot chillies, it has a fruity, rounded taste with no noticeable heat, so it suits family meals and anyone who prefers flavour over fire. The powder is finely ground and free flowing, which means it sprinkles easily over food and blends smoothly into sauces, soups and marinades.

Key Features:

  • Large 500g pack of sweet red bell pepper powder suitable for frequent home cooking and batch recipes.
  • Naturally bright red colour that helps sauces, rubs and marinades look rich and appetising on the plate.
  • Mild and gentle seasoning that builds flavour without adding heat, ideal for family friendly dishes.
  • Useful base ingredient for homemade spice blends such as barbecue rubs and house seasoning mixes.
  • Works across many cuisines including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and American style dishes.

Recipe Inspiration:

  • Sweet pepper and tomato pasta sauce: Gently cook onions and garlic in olive oil, then stir in Fox’s Spices Red Bell Pepper Powder before adding chopped tomatoes and a splash of stock. Simmer until thick and glossy and serve with pasta, meatballs or grilled vegetables.
  • Red pepper roast vegetable tray: Toss chunks of courgette, aubergine, peppers and onions with oil, red bell pepper powder and a pinch of dried herbs. Roast until the vegetables are soft and caramelised at the edges, then serve with couscous, grilled chicken or halloumi.
  • Sweet pepper hummus: Blend cooked chickpeas with tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil and a generous spoon of red bell pepper powder. The seasoning gives a warm colour and gentle sweetness, making a dip that works well with flatbreads, crudites or as a sandwich spread.
  • Smoky style seasoning for chips and wedges: Mix red bell pepper powder with a little mild chilli powder, garlic granules and sea salt. Shake over potato wedges or chips before baking or air frying for a simple house seasoning that you can also use on corn on the cob, roast chicken or grilled vegetables.

How can I use red bell pepper powder to balance dishes that feel too sharp or acidic?

Red bell pepper powder brings a soft sweetness and gentle depth, so it is handy when a tomato based sauce or stew tastes a bit too sharp. Stir in a small amount towards the end of cooking and let it simmer for a few minutes. The natural sweetness takes the edge off the acidity without needing to add sugar, and the colour becomes a little warmer and more rounded at the same time.

Can red bell pepper powder help when I want the look of chilli without the heat?

If you like the appearance of a deep red sauce or rub but do not want a hot result, red bell pepper powder is very useful. You can use it as the main colouring and flavouring element, then add just a pinch of your chosen chilli powder for a slight kick. This gives you far more control over the final heat level and makes it easier to cook one base recipe that will suit a range of tastes at the table.

What is a good way to introduce red bell pepper powder into recipes I already make?

An easy starting point is to replace a small part of any paprika or chilli powder you already use with red bell pepper powder. For example, if a recipe calls for one teaspoon of paprika, try using half a teaspoon of paprika and half a teaspoon of red bell pepper powder. Over time you can adjust the balance to suit your taste. This approach lets you keep the character of your favourite dishes while slowly building in the softer sweetness and colour that red bell pepper powder brings.
