Buy Jolokia Hot Sauce online from igourmet.com! Jolokia Hot Sauce is made from the Bhut Jolokia chile pepper, recently edged out as the world's hottest pepper, but still mighty fierce. This pepper has many aliases, including Bhut Jolokia, Ghost Pepper, Naga Jolokia, and Bhot Jolokia. The Bhut Jolokia chile pepper is native to northeastern India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, but grows well in new cultivations in New Mexico as well. The Bhut Jolokia has dented and very thin skin that is easy to tear and is red, orange or yellow in color. Interestingly, climate has a noticeable effect on the heat of the Bhut Jolokia. It has been documented that Bhut Jolokias grown in regions of lower humidity and rainfall can have up to 50% less heat when measured by the Scoville heat index. In Indian culture, the Bhut Jolokia is also used as a homeopathic remedy for stomach pain and is sometimes used for relief from heat exposure, since ingesting the Bhut Jolokia creates intense sweating which lowers body temperatures.
The Guinness Book of World Records certified that the Bhut Jolokia, commonly referred to as the Ghost Pepper and the source chile pepper for Jolokia Hot Sauce, was the hottest pepper in the world between 2007 and 2010. The Bhut Jolokia has measured over 1,000,000 units on the Scoville scale. The Scoville scale measures of the heat of a chile pepper based on the amount of capsaicin present. Capsaicin is the chemical in chile peppers responsible for its heat. In comparison, Tabasco sauce only measures between 3,500 and 5,000 Scoville units, the Habanero pepper measures 300,000 units, while pure capsaicin measures 16,000,000 units.
