Crushed red pepper or red pepper flakes is a condiment or spice consisting of dried and crushed red chili peppers. This condiment is most often produced from cayenne-type peppers, although commercial producers may use a variety of different cultivars, usually within the 30,000–50,000 Scoville unit range.

Dried chile flakes, commonly labeled crushed red pepper flakes, are used to top pizza, stir-fries, spicy pastas, and many other dishes. They can be stirred into sauces to add heat. How hot they are depends on the type of chili that was dried to make them—cayenne is the most common.
