What is the most spicy food on the planet? That is a question that a lot of us ask. Most of the world’s spiciest dishes originate from India and contain one key ingredient: The Bhut Jolokia chilli pepper. The Guinness Book of World Records states that the Bhut Jolokia pepper or the "Naja Jolokia" as it is known in regional areas of India is officially the worlds most spicy ingredient.

However, India is not the only location to have some of the world’s spiciest food. Indian Restaurant from around the world varies in its ingredients and the amount of areas where you will find the spiciest ingredients are rare.

Yet on the other hand, the US has a very good stab at playing host to some of the world's most spicy food. In Chicago, Illinois the “Hot Suicide Wings” require a disclaimer before even eating them! They are chicken wings made with a red sauce made from the Red Savina Habanero which is a pepper grown in Mexico.

Second in line is the infamous “Devil Pork Curry” which is made in Malaysia. It is quite like the Vindaloo that many people like but instead it is made out of mustard, vinegar and chillies!
Thirdly we have the “Hot Pot Sichuan Province” which is made in the heart of China. The lovely looking dish is extremely deceitful in its appearance as it truly is one of the most spicy dishes on earth! The dish is comprised of numerous meats and vegetables however the most notable and potent add on is the Sichuan flower which produces a numbing effect when you eat it.

Finishing up we have one the most recent and spicy dishes to date. The sweltering Korean stew known as “Kimchi Jjigae” is made from Tofu, Pork, Scallions and Seafood but the base of Kimchi is a spicy pickled garnish made from Cantonese Beaechu. However the real triumph is the sheer quantity of chillies that they chuck into the pot for good measure. They are dried red chilli peppers which form a near lethal combination during pickling process with the piquant cabbage.
