Byadgi (668) Red Chillies

The Byadgi chilli, often called 668 Byadgi, is among the most popular varieties of Indian dry red chillies. Known for its brilliant red color, wrinkled texture, and mild spiciness, this chilli is a favorite choice for those who love vibrant color in their dishes without excessive heat.

Cultivated mainly in the Haveri district of Karnataka and also in parts of Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, Byadgi chillies are long, slender, and deep red. Unlike extra-hot chilli varieties, Byadgi is gentle on the palate, making it suitable for everyday cooking as well as large-scale food processing. Beyond taste and color, it is also valued for its rich vitamin content, antioxidants, and natural minerals, adding both flavor and health benefits to meals.

Byadgi chillies are available in multiple forms to suit different needs:

  • With stem

  • Without stem

  • Crushed flakes

  • Fine chilli powder

Thanks to their strong coloring ability, Byadgi chillies are widely used by spice manufacturers, masala brands, and food processors who want natural red pigmentation without artificial colors or extreme pungency.
