sure why they call it that, but I think its because the chile is so hot, you
give up the ghost when you eat it!
I think the name should be BHOT Jalakia not BHUT Jalakia as mentioned in
the article and
Also, accordng to the article, the bhot jalakia will be available for sell
from the institute from Late April, 2007. Does that mean that it is patented
here?

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

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
Yes indeed, Habanero is a close but milder cousin. I grew them last year.
