Dried Ghost Peppers

Also known as the Bhut Jolokia or Naga Jolokia, the Ghost Pepper originates in India and is considered one of the hottest commercially available peppers in the world. (At this time, only the Trinidad Scorpion Pepper is hotter.) Frieda's Dried Ghost Peppers are twice as hot as Dried Habanero Peppers, and should be used sparingly in recipes. CAUTION: Wear gloves and use caution when handling this pepper, and do not touch eyes, nose or mouth after handling.
