🌶️ Product Overview & Flavor Profile

Common Names: Lal Mirch, Cayenne Pepper, Hot Chilli Pepper

🧪 Scientific & Heat Characteristics

The heat level of red chilli is governed by a natural chemical compound called Capsaicin, which interacts with pain receptors to create the characteristic burning sensation. Heat is measured globally using the Scoville Scale in Scoville Heat Units (SHU):

Mild (Kashmiri/Paprika): 1,000 – 2,000 SHU (Primarily used for vibrant red color and aroma)
Medium (Byadgi): 8,000 – 15,000 SHU (Great for daily cooking, balance of color and spice)
High (Guntur/Cayenne): 15,000 – 30,000+ SHU (Deep, pungent fiery heat)
