sure why they call it that, but I think its because the chile is so hot, you

I think the name should be BHOT Jalakia not BHUT Jalakia as mentioned in

Also, accordng to the article, the bhot jalakia will be available for sell

It depends on where you grow it. If it is in Guwahati, it is Bhot Jalakia. In
Jorhat it would be Bhut Jalakia. The end result is the same, you burn at both

I always thought it as small. I think I got it mixed up with the kon

Your Take is pretty good. I think this is what most people are expressing
(even if they are not articulate).
The supporters of ULFA or their ideology are trying very hard to convince
the rest. Their main ways of doing so are (summing up)
The Ulfa uses all the violent means and does

1/4th of a teaspoon of Bhot Jalakia Achar? You must be brave.
By the way, a close cousin of this pepper is Habanero, not as potent but
with a warning hot smell. The plant survives mild winter in Houston, Texas, and
ULFA's emergence and the call for independence, as espoused by them,
had a number of widely recognized reasons. I doubt if there would be
a single person here in this forum, including the most vehement of
ULFA critics, who could deny or disavow the conditions that gave rise
to an armed
Yes indeed, Habanero is a close but milder cousin. I grew them last year.
