Description

A very important spice crop demanded as whole, flakes and powder, and is regularly consumed in very large quantities. It imparts color and pungency, both of which play a key role in the repertoire of food preparation and presentation. Pungency is the most sought after quality parameter of the chili. These seeds are responsible for the burning sensation in the stomach. All Down to Earth chilies are sun dried. The stem and seeds are removed and the chili is then grounded. This keeps the aroma and the taste intact while imparting your curries with the right amount of pungency. Our most popular range of chili has a heat value of 15000-40000, which is considered ideal as it lends food its color and aroma, and not just heat and pungency.
