Smoked Ghost Pepper

What is Smoked Ghost Pepper powder? It's a single-ingredient spice made from ghost peppers (bhut jolokia) — among the hottest chilies grown in India — slow-smoked over wood and ground into a deep, vibrant red powder. Unlike blended chili powders, this one contains nothing but smoked ghost pepper, so its heat and smoke character come through undiluted; a pinch changes the direction of an entire dish, and a spoonful is genuinely not meant for casual use. Ghost pepper has historically been used in small quantities in northeastern Indian cooking, prized as much for its smoky depth as for its Scoville rating. This is the hottest blend ameei makes, and it's built for people who already know they want that kind of heat: stirred into oil for a marinade, added a pinch at a time to curries, or used sparingly to finish a dish that needs one more layer of intensity. Handle it with respect.
