Kashmiri chili powder (wherever it really comes from and whatever it really is made from) is a name for a powdered chili pepper that is relatively mild in heat and full-flavored, but its main characteristic is a vibrant red coloring. It is somewhat similar to paprika in this respect – it is used more for coloring than for heat, although it’s slightly hotter than paprika. Measured on the Scoville scale, Paprika is about 500 SHU (Scoville Heat Units) at its hottest, while Kashmiri chili powder can top out around 2000 SHU. The important thing to learn here is that if Kashmiri chili powder is called for in a recipe, it is not heat that is important, it is the color and the flavor; substituting cayenne for Kashmiri is not recommended.
