BhutLah Powder is obtained by finely grinding the fruits of this cross between Bhut Jolokia and Naga Morich, with its intense, lingering heat.
source plant, of the species Capsicum chinense, produces dark red pods with a wrinkled, irregular surface.
powder comes from fruits grown from seeds sown between February and March in a seedbed at 24-28°C, dried and ground after the autumn harvest.
slow, low-temperature drying preserves the dark color and aroma, followed by fine grinding that removes the coarser seed fragments.
it should be stored in an airtight container away from light and moisture, and dosed with extreme caution: a few pinches are enough to season an entire dish.
when handling it, gloves and a mask should be worn, as the concentrated powder can irritate skin, eyes and airways even from a distance.
BhutLah Powder has a very high and lingering heat level: use it in minimal pinches for artisan hot sauces or as a challenge for collectors.
it concentrates high doses of capsaicin, responsible for its intense heat, along with good amounts of vitamin A and antioxidants.
