Teja/S17

Product Description

The Teja/S17 Chili is a highly sought-after variety of red chili, renowned for its intense heat, vibrant red color, and pungent flavor. Grown primarily in regions with ideal climatic conditions, this chili is celebrated for its Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) ranging between 50,000 and 100,000, making it a popular choice for adding a fiery kick to culinary creations.

Teja chilies are known for their thin skin, which makes them ideal for drying and grinding into fine chili powder. The brilliant red hue and robust spiciness of this variety enhance the visual appeal and flavor profile of dishes, especially in Indian, Southeast Asian, and Mexican cuisines. Additionally, its uniform size and consistent quality make it a preferred choice for spice manufacturers and food processors worldwide.
