Whole Ghost Chiles (Bhut Jolokia), 1 lb – Dried Hot Pepper Pods, Extreme Heat (350,000–577,000 SHU), by Woodland Gourmet

Whole Ghost Chiles, also known as Bhut Jolokia, are among the most potent chile peppers in the world. Originally cultivated in India, these peppers are famous for their slow-building, searing heat and exceptionally high capsaicin content. Measuring between 350,000 and 577,000 Scoville Heat Units, ghost chiles deliver intense spice that continues to develop long after the first bite. These whole dried pods range from yellow-orange to deep red and measure approximately 1 to 2 inches in length. Beneath their fiery heat lies a subtle fruity character that makes them especially prized for hot sauce production, extreme chili recipes, and high-heat spice blends. Ghost chiles are ideal for steeping in sauces, grinding into powder, or using sparingly in marinades and rubs. Because of their extreme heat level, they should be handled carefully. Always wear gloves, avoid contact with eyes and skin, and use in very small amounts to control intensity. Crafted from 100% dried ghost chiles, Woodland Gourmet delivers premium quality for serious heat seekers and culinary professionals alike.
