Most commonly, chilli is used in powdered form in everyday cooking. Many seasonings, including sauces, chutneys, and pickles, include chilli powder.
Indian peppers are the most well-known in the world and are in high demand elsewhere. The majority of chilli types continue to be produced and exported primarily by India to nations such as Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, the Middle East, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Latin America. The two peculiar qualities of chillies are their colour, which is caused by the pigment called capsanthin, and their pungency, which is caused by the compound called capsaicin. Chilies are a crucial component of many popular meals, including curries.
S- 334, also known as S-4, Wander Hot, Teja, Semi Bird Eye (Nalchetti), Bird Eye (Tejapuri), Wrinkled, Tomato, Byadgi, Kashmiri, and S-9 Mundu are some of the more popular varieties of chillies found in India. Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Rajasthan, and Assam are some of the major chilli-producing regions in India.
