Dried Red Chilli
Kashmiri, Byadagi, Guntur, Bhut Jolokia and Naga Viper chillies, Grade A or B.
Kashmiri chilli is prized for deep red color with relatively mild heat — used where a recipe needs color without much burn. Byadagi runs similarly mild and colorful; Guntur is the high-heat commodity grade behind most bulk chilli powder production. Bhut Jolokia and Naga Viper are extreme-heat specialty varieties bought in much smaller volumes, mainly by hot-sauce and novelty-food manufacturers.
Heat level and color are the two things to specify clearly on your RFQ — these varieties are not interchangeable, and Guntur substituted for Kashmiri (or vice versa) will visibly change a finished product.
