Guntur Heat | 100% Pure Guntur Red Chilli Powder
The Pride of Andhra Pradesh, Delivered to Your Kitchen.
Experience the legendary fire of the Guntur Sannam (S4) variant. Cultivated in the mineral-rich soils of Guntur, India, these chillies are globally renowned for their intense pungency, thick skin, and high capsaicin content. Our Shrestha Foods ® Hot Gunture Chilli powder isn't just spicy; it is a concentrated expression of this world-famous region’s agricultural heritage.
The Guntur Difference
Unlike generic chilli powders that use a mix of low-grade peppers, our powder is grounded exclusively from premium, sun-dried Guntur chillies.
World-Class Pungency: Guntur chillies are rated significantly higher on the Scoville scale than standard varieties, offering a sharp, clean heat that doesn't fade during cooking.
Deep Natural Pigment: The high Capsanthin content provides a rich, dark red color that tints your curries and oils naturally, eliminating the need for artificial dyes.
Aromatic Complexity: Beyond the heat, you’ll find subtle earthy and smoky undertones unique to the Guntur soil profile.
How to Use the Shrestha Foods ® Guntur Spicy Kick
The Authentic Base: Essential for traditional South Indian dishes like Kodi Kura (Andhra Chicken Curry) or Pulihora.
Infused Finishing Oil: Heat $100$ml of oil with 1 tablespoon of Guntur powder and garlic for a potent drizzle.
The Dry Rub: Use sparingly on grilled meats to achieve a professional-grade crust and "back-of-the-throat" heat.
Note on Potency: Because this is a pure Guntur variant, we recommend using $50\%$ less than your usual recipe calls for until you find your preferred heat level.
Bold. Authentic. Unadulterated. Shrestha Foods ® Chilli Powder is the true taste of Guntur.
