kashmiri lal mirch, known for its vibrant red color and rich flavor, is a staple in Kashmiri cuisine and a popular spice in Indian cooking. Renowned for its mild heat, it adds a distinctive warmth and depth to dishes without overpowering them. The spice is derived from sun-dried red chili peppers, which are ground into a fine powder, often used in curries, chutneys, and rice dishes.
