Description

Our Organic Smoked Chili Flakes are made from Guntur chilies grown in India by a small farmer cooperative we’re proud to work with. They reflect a deep connection to the land and the care behind each harvest.

Known for their vibrant colour and bold flavour, the chilies are picked at peak ripeness, when they are at their most expressive. They are then hand harvested, gently smoked over wood, and dried before being crushed into flakes.

The result is a lively chili flake with noticeable heat and a subtle smoky depth, bringing both intensity and balance to your cooking.

Naturally versatile, our smoked chili flakes are well-suited to soups, curries, stir-fries, and a wide range of savoury dishes that benefit from smoky heat.

Hand packed on Vancouver Island, BC, each batch reflects our commitment to quality and thoughtfully sourced ingredients, bringing the bold, smoky character of chili flakes into your kitchen.

Welcome to Gathering Place Trading,

Where We Direct Source the Best Organic Smoked Chili Flakes

About Our Indian Farming Cooperative

We support 1400 farmers under a cooperative umbrella covering close to 10,000 acres of certified organic land in Karnataka State. Our true cinnamon, turmeric, ginger, cayenne, smoked chili flakes, vanilla beans, and stevia come from these certified organic farms, some of which are FairTrade certified.

These Indian farmers plant food forests, also called inter-cropping, where multiple crops grow harmoniously and life thrives, rather than mono-cropping, which negatively impacts the soil and the ecosystem. This system ensures the farmer gets more income from the same piece of land. The farmers are supported every step of the way by the cooperative, learning about seed procurement, building soil, harvesting, storage, and food safety practices.

Our community sourcing partners have certified organic state-of-the-art processing facilities, international food safety certification, allergen-free declarations, and kosher certification. This results in the highest quality products delivered fresh to Gathering Place several times a year.
