Reference: ED5-VP-SANTAKA
Santaka peppers are 2–3 inches long, thin-walled, and have a tapered teardrop shape. They are green when unripe and turn red when ripe. The skin is thin and wrinkled when harvested.
Santaka peppers have a Scoville heat rating of 40,000–50,000, which means they are very hot. They have a simple, intense heat that blends well with other bold spices.
Santaka peppers can be used fresh in stir-fries and soups, or dried into a powder for sauces, chutneys, salsas, and more. They can also be steeped in vegetable oils to infuse the oil with their heat.
