About Kashmiri chilli powder

Kashmiri chilli powder is a ground chilli seasoning associated with Kashmiri cooking. It is known for a vivid red colour and a relatively mild, rounded chilli heat compared with many hotter ground chillies, though strength varies by product. The powder is fine and dry, and is used to colour and season sauces, marinades, and other cooked foods.

Products may be made from different chilli lots or blends, so colour and pungency are not identical across brands. It is sold as a dry powder and is generally added during cooking or mixed into a paste with liquid or fat. It should not be treated as interchangeable with every generic chilli powder.
