{"title":"Kashmiri Chilli Powder","description":"\u003cp\u003eKashmiri mirch is ground from a long, wrinkled red chilli prized for colour over fire. Cooks use it where they want redness without making the dish too hot for children or guests: tandoori and tikka marinades, butter chicken, rogan josh, Goan vindaloo and the red oil that floats on a good restaurant curry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeggi mirch is a close cousin, usually a blend of Kashmiri and other mild chillies ground for the same job, and the two can be swapped in most recipes. Compared with ordinary chilli powder, Kashmiri gives perhaps a third of the heat and far more colour. Many cooks mix it half and half with regular \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/chilli-powder\"\u003echilli powder\u003c\/a\u003e to set their own balance, and use Kashmiri alone for dishes meant for the whole family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the brightest colour, bloom the powder in warm oil or ghee off the heat for a moment before it joins the pan, and it will release its red into the fat.
