Dehydrated Teja (S17) Chillies

​

Dehydrated Teja chillies, also known as S17, are one of India’s hottest commercial red chilli varieties, prized for their intense pungency, bright red color, and strong aroma. They are widely used in chilli powder, spice blends, pickles, hot sauces, and industrial food processing, especially where strong heat is required without overpowering the product with too much color or sweetness.
 

With a heat range typically around 50,000 to 100,000 SHU or higher depending on grade, Teja chillies are a preferred choice for exporters and spice manufacturers targeting premium pungent applications. Their long, slender pods and excellent drying quality make them highly suitable for global trade.
