This kind of peppers is where the Bhut Jolokia hot sauce is made from, which is so hot that can make a dish inedible even with a small amount on it.

These peppers are known in many places with different names. This is because the culture growing it is the one that gives the name for it. Years ago, the heat levels were tested in order for them to identify how edible it is. After the test, it has been discovered that the small pods are just disguises of the hottest chili in the world.
