All chilies are measured in Scoville Units which determine the level of capsaicin in a particular chili. Rani Kashmiri Chilli is very mild, the seeds are removed to further reduce heat, registering at 12,000-15,000 SHU on the head index (comparing to cayenne & extra hot which is 50,000-100,000 SHU). While lower in heat, the chilli taste & beautiful color are well preserved.
