CHILLY POWDER
Chilly Powder
Indian chili powder, often referred to as "mirchi powder" or "lal mirch powder," is a quintessential spice in Indian cooking, renowned for its vibrant color and intense heat. Made from dried red chili peppers, it encompasses a rich flavor profile that ranges from mildly spicy to extremely fiery, depending on the variety of chili peppers used and the processing method.
Chili powder is a spice blend made from dried chili peppers, other hot peppers, along with other spices like cumin, garlic powder, and oregano. It adds heat and flavor to dishes and is commonly used in cuisines around the world, including Mexican, Indian, and Thai. It's a versatile ingredient that can be used to season meats, vegetables, soups, stews, and sauces. Just be cautious with the amount you use, as it can quickly add a lot of heat to a dish!
