About Red chillies

Red chillies, originating primarily from Central and South America, are a vibrant and fiery ingredient widely used in cuisines around the world, including Indian, Mexican, Thai, and Korean. They are rich in several vital nutrients such as vitamins A, B6, C, and E, as well as potassium and antioxidants. Capsaicin, the compound responsible for their signature heat, is known to boost metabolism, aid digestion, and promote heart health. Additionally, red chillies may have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. Despite their benefits, they should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake may cause irritation in the stomach lining or exacerbate acid reflux for sensitive individuals. Available in fresh, dried, or powdered forms, red chillies add spice, color, and depth to dishes, making them a beloved staple in countless recipes across the globe.
