The Bhut Jolokia originating from the northeast of India rates a whopping 855,000–1,041,427 on the Scoville scale! I actually have a dried chili pepper of this variety, but have never had the guts to try it. People here in India use it to flavor curries by just dipping it in the curry for a few minutes and taking it out. The same chili pepper is then used for upto a week without losing its hotness, in different dishes to spice it up.
