What is the Chocolate Ghost?

The Chocolate Ghost Pepper, also known as Bhut Jolokia Chile, is a formidable chili pepper known for its extreme heat and distinctive flavor profile. Originating from the Northeastern region of India, specifically Assam, Nagaland, and Manipur, it gained popularity as one of the hottest peppers in the world.

Natural Variant: The Chocolate Ghost Pepper is a natural variant of the Bhut Jolokia pepper, characterized by its deep chocolate brown color when fully ripe. It is not a cross-bred pepper but a unique phenotype of the original Bhut Jolokia. The pepper resembles other varieties of the Bhut Jolokia, with a wrinkled and bumpy skin, and a shape similar to a habanero pepper.

Flavor: In terms of flavor, our Chocolate Ghost Pepper offers a complex taste experience. It initially delivers an intense, searing heat that can be overwhelming for those unaccustomed to extreme spiciness. Beyond the heat, the pepper exhibits smoky and earthy undertones with hints of sweetness. This unique combination of flavors makes it a sought-after ingredient for those seeking both heat and a distinctive taste.

Chocolate Ghost Peppers are known to be one of the world's hottest pepper at 800,000 to 1,000,000 SHUs! So why eat it?

Like most chili peppers, in certain amounts the sensation can be quite pleasing and causes the release of endorphins in the brain, which make you feel pleasure. Studies suggest that Capsaicin may have certain health benefits, such as pain relief, improved digestion, and potential metabolism-boosting effects. Eat with caution but enjoy the complex flavor provided by Magic Plant Farms' Chocolate Bhut Jolokia Chile. Use our premium quality dry chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! It pairs well with spicy salsas, hot sauces, and chili-based dishes like curries and stews. It can also be used to add a fiery kick to marinades for grilled meats, giving them a smoky and spicy flavor. For the brave of heart, just add more directly on top!

Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating or working with such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our dry flakes or ground Chocolate Ghost  peppers with our milder peppers like our Low Heat Dried Peppers (Chipotle Morita) or our sweet dried peppers (Green Ancho Peppers, Red Cascabel Pepper, Red Poblano Mulato Pepper, Trinidad Pimento (Trini Pemiento), Peppadew Peppers / Sweety Drop Peppers). This will still give you the rich flavor of the Chocolate Ghost without the overwhelming heat.
