Dan Richer, founder of the famous Razza pizzeria in Jersey City, NJ developed this bright, fruity chili blend as a major upgrade to what he calls the "run-of-the-mill crushed red pepper that's on every table at your local pizzeria." It's ripe with four different chilis (Silk Chili, Cobanero Chili, Smoked Pimentón Paprika and sweet paprika). It has a hint of sweet smokiness and boasts a beautiful, complex, medium heat.
The blend is obviously fantastic on pizza, but trust us — you're going to want to put it on everything!

SOURCING
We're equal-opportunity pizza enthusiasts over here at B&B. That's why we weren't surprised when we saw the NYT article asking, "Is New York's Best Pizza in New Jersey?" about the amazing pies our friends at Razza in Jersey City are making. Needless to say, we were excited (like, really excited) when Dan Richer, founder of Razza, wanted to collaborate on making his chili blend dreams come true.
Razza, based in Jersey City, NJ, is committed to the joy of pizza. Dan Richer and his team have a shared purpose: make the perfect pizza. They know it's a lofty goal, so they continue to search out the very best ingredients and hone their technique with every pizza they make. Each ingredient is carefully selected, from the locally milled flour to the cream they use to make their own butter. They are inspired and guided by the Italian way of cooking an eating, letting the seasons and location dictate their menu.

Great Pepper Blend
Perfect ballance between heat and flavor.

Razza Crushed Red Pepper
It has heat with depth of flavor. Love the blend but wish B&B would stop requesting reviews!

Great spice
Really enoyed the flavor of this crushed red pepper. Good amount of spice, but can still taste the fruitiness of the pepper. Will definitely buy again

Nice warmth
This red pepper really is crushed, much finer than the red pepper flakes were all used to. It sprinkles on easily, and delivers a nice mouth warmth without adding texture to the food it’s enhancing. We like it!

Hot Sides
Love to spice up my veggies with these peppers!
