Historia y cultura
Portuguese traders introduced chilies to India in the 16th century. Kashmiri farmers bred varieties suited to the cool valley climate, focusing on pigment and flavor. The resulting chili became integral to Kashmiri wazwan cuisine. Demand spread across India, especially for tandoori dishes needing vibrant color without overpowering spice. Today, both sun-dried pods and commercial powders supply restaurants worldwide.
