Know Your Spice

Lakhori chilli is a traditional single-origin yellow chilli variety from the Himalayan region and is recognized as a Geographical Indication (GI) tagged produce. It is valued for its characteristic color, gentle pungency, and regional identity rooted in traditional cultivation practices.

Intensity and usage

Mild heat. Adds warmth and natural color without sharp pungency.

How It Is Processed

Harvested at maturity, naturally sun-dried and stone-ground in small batches without additives or blending.

Origin and farming practices

These spices are sourced from marginal farmers cultivating small terraced landholdings in the Himalayan region. Grown in challenging mountain conditions and cooler climates, the crops are traditional indigenous varieties rather than high-yield commercial hybrids. The slower growth and natural farming practices contribute to their distinctive character and regional identity.

Traditional value and properties

Lakhori chilli has traditionally been used in Himalayan kitchens for its mild warmth and natural color. Like other chillies, it contains naturally occurring antioxidant compounds and forms part of everyday culinary use.
