about
Dalle Khursani belongs to Capsicum annuum. It is mostly grown in Sikkim and its surrounding regions like Darjeeling for its deliciously hot fruits. With a Scoville rating of 100,000 to 350,000 SHU, it belongs to the family of one of the hottest chili peppers in the world. This special pepper native to Sikkim was rightfully awarded a GI tag.
We have bottled them following the traditional recipe of dry-brining, used in the hills of North Bengal and fermented them just right so that the fruitiness and sharpness balance each other delicately.

what you can cook with it
Use them as you want in between your sandwiches or chopped up in a salad with some of the brine. These little ones pack quite the heat so test out your level of heat tolerance first! You can also make some hot sauces or chutneys using them to balance out sweet jams or anything in between.
