Description:

Naga chilli, also known as the "ghost pepper," is a fiery and potent chili pepper that originates from the Northeastern region of India, including Nagaland. This chili, known as "Naga Morich" or "Raja Mircha," is famous for its extreme heat and distinct flavor.

Naga chilli is one of the hottest chili peppers in the world, with a Scoville rating that can reach over a million units. Its small size and wrinkled appearance hide the intense heat contained within. The bright red or orange color of the pepper adds to its visual appeal.

In Bangladesh, Naga chilli is highly regarded for its intense spiciness and is used sparingly in cooking. It is often added to pickles, chutneys, and spicy dishes to provide a fiery kick. The heat of Naga chilli is not only intense but also has a lingering quality that adds depth to the flavors of the dish.

While consuming Naga chilli in moderation, it can offer health benefits. It contains capsaicin, a compound known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
