Guntur Sannam Chilli

Our Guntur Sannam Chilli Powder adds balanced heat and bold flavor to curries, dals, stir-fries, marinades, spice rubs, and roasted vegetables. It's just as delicious sprinkled over eggs, stirred into soups, blended into sauces, or used as a chilli powder for tacos, beans, and grilled meats.

Properly stored chilli powder keeps its best flavor for about one to two years, though fresher is always better. Store it in an airtight container away from heat, light, and moisture to preserve its vibrant aroma, color, and flavor.

Absolutely. Pure Indian chilli powder brings more nuanced flavor than most pre-made taco seasonings, which often contain spices like cumin, garlic, and oregano. Guntur Sannam adds balanced heat and bright, tomatoey depth to tacos, beans, grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and homemade spice blends.

Guntur chilli powder is made from chillies grown in the Guntur region of Andhra Pradesh, one of India's most celebrated chilli-growing regions. The Guntur Sannam variety is known for its vibrant color, layered flavor, and medium, building heat, making it one of the most versatile chillies in South Asian cooking.

Store them in an airtight container in a dark, dry place. Do not store spices in direct sunlight, as this will shorten their shelf life.

Most of the spices are good 2 years from the mill date, which is listed on the harvest label sticker on the jar or bag. That being said, our spices are extremely potent and fresh as we take incredible care to source yearly and aim for quality, so 2 years is our most conservative guideline, compared to most spices in the grocery store which are often 5-10 years old upon purchase.

Our farm partners have been cultivating spices using practices that go "beyond organic" for well over five years. Although they haven't obtained USDA certification yet, this is primarily because the initial certification can be costly and may lead to cycles of debt. To meet USDA standards, four years of inspections and certificates are required after the first certification. However, we consider this process redundant and unnecessary since we conduct thorough testing on every batch we procure. It's a prerequisite for Diaspora Co. to select farm partners whose soil health and agricultural practices align with our internal standards of growing food regeneratively.
