Organic Lal Mirch Whole (Red Chilli), Vision Fresh (200 gm)
Whole Red Chilli (a.k.a lal mirch) is a spice that can set your tongue on fire and bring a tear to your eyes! It is made by grinding sun-dried whole red chilies.
Whole Red Chili adds zest to many different cuisines from around the world, like spicy Indian, hot Mexican, simmering Szechuan and hot Thai food.
The history of red chilies can be traced back to Central and Southern American regions, whose cuisines are renowned for their hot and spicy flavours. In the 15th and 16th century, red chilies were introduced to Europe, where they were used as a cheaper substitute for black pepper. From there they went to Africa and Asia.
In India, the red chili pepper is primarily grown in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan.
Most Indian savoury dishes are incomplete without a dash of red chili.

Benefits
- Anti- inflammatory ? red chili pepper contains a substance called capsaicin, which gives the chili its pungency. It is known to inhibit the growth of substances that cause inflammation. It is effective in treating sensory nerve disorders and pains associated with arthritis, psoriasis, osteoarthritis and diabetic neuropathy.
- Promotes heart health ? red chilies have shown to lower and control blood cholesterol, thereby reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
- Body stimulant ? the capsaicin component in red chilies also stimulates the body, which helps to get rid of mucus from a stuffed up nose and clears congestion.
- Source of vitamin A and C ? a small amount of red chilli provides vitamin C and vitamin A in abundance, which boosts the body?s immunity and fights against free radical damage. Vitamin A helps the body maintain good eyesight as the body ages and promotes healthy bones, teeth, skin, internal membranes and reproductive systems. Vitamin C also assists in healing injuries and improving digestion.
