Cultural Significance: Whole dried chilies are a cornerstone of Indian cuisine, used extensively in regional dishes across India.

Traditionally, whole chilies with stems are preferred for their intense flavor, aroma, and ease of handling during cooking.

How to Use: Fry or roast the whole chilies in oil to release their flavors before adding them to curries, dals, or stir-fried dishes. You can also grind them into a fine powder for homemade chili spice blends or use them in pickles for added heat.
