Instructions

Trivia
[Hardcore] While 'Kashmiri Chili' is mainly for coloring and not spicy, this is powder to add 'pure heat'. Indian homes blend these two types to create their own golden ratio for adjusting heat.
Eating tips & etiquette
[Unique Eating] When heat is lacking, sprinkle directly more over the finished dish, forcibly triggering a scorching spice experience that numbs the tongue!
