The Byadgi Chili is a famous variety of red chili known for its vibrant red color, mild heat, and rich flavor. Native to the Byadgi region of Karnataka, India, this chili is highly valued for its deep red hue and unique wrinkled appearance, which makes it easily distinguishable from other varieties. With a low Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) range of 8,000 to 15,000, Byadgi chilies are preferred for their subtle spiciness and high oil content, which adds an appealing sheen to food preparations.
Byadgi chili is particularly renowned for its ability to impart natural red coloring to dishes without overwhelming them with heat, making it a popular choice in Indian curries, sauces, chutneys, and spice blends. It is also a key ingredient in traditional recipes like sambar and rasam. The chili’s mild flavor and striking color make it ideal for the production of paprika, chili powders, and natural food colorants.
