Whole Naga chillies are one of the hottest peppers in the world and must therefore be used with caution! When prepping and cooking with these chillies, use gloves and avoid touching your skin or eyes until hands have been thoroughly washed with water and soap.

Also known as Naga bhut jolokia or ghost chillies, they add ferocious heat to anything they touch. The chilli rates over one million Scoville units, making it 10 times hotter than a scotch bonnet. The pepper is even used as tear gas in India and unsurprisingly, has become a mainstay in eating contests and spicy food challenges around the world.

With typically rough, wrinkled skin, the chillies come in various shades of red, orange and yellow when fully ripe. The name “Naga” refers to the Naga tribes that are indigenous to the regions where the chilli pepper is grown, while “Jolokia” translates to “chilli” in the Assamese language.

Within the culinary world, the best way to use Naga Jolokia is to add a minute amount to curries, homemade Indian spice blends eg Seasoned Pioneers Vindaloo and fresh tomato salads.
