Does a ghost pepper even have a flavor? Perhaps, but usually, it’s the blinding nova-level heat that distracts people from noticing it. However, in small doses, it offers a very intriguing tingle that mixes beautifully in chili recipes, marmalades, and milk-based dishes and desserts.

You should always wear gloves when using dried ghost peppers or ghost pepper powder. Thorough hand washing afterward is encouraged. Treat ghost pepper the way you would good wine: a little is just fine, while a lot will leave you suffering.
