🧊 How to use them
✔️ A snack whilst watching films or sport – a quick and delicious treat.
✔️ With dips: salsa, guacamole or cheese dips add another dimension of flavour.
✔️ At a party or when socialising with friends – ideal as part of a platter with other crisps and snacks.
💡 Tip: If you want to tone down the heat a little, serve them with creamy dips (e.g. yoghurt or ‘mild’ salsa) — this will bring out the flavour without being too spicy.
