Ghost Peppers, also known as Bhut Jolokia, are one of the hottest chili peppers in the world. Originating from India, these peppers can reach over 1,000,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), making them significantly spicier than jalapeños. Their fiery heat is often used in sauces, snacks, and even in some culinary challenges for those who love extreme spice. Despite their intense heat, Ghost Peppers have a unique fruity flavor that can enhance dishes when used carefully. They are often dried and ground into powder or used fresh in cooking. However, caution is advised when handling them, as their heat can linger on the skin and in the air.
