The Ghost Pepper, also known as bhut jolokia, is the number-3 hottest peppers in the world. This hybrid pepper from India's northeast can be up to five times hotter than a habanero. Its capsaicin content is so high that farmers sometimes use them 'to keep wild elephants away'. be sure to handle them with great caution. We harvest the Ghost Chillies at their peak ripeness, dry them to lock in flavour, and carefully grind them into a powder for your use.
