Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons guajillo powder
- 2 tablespoons ancho powder
- 1 tablespoon cayenne
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cumin
Instructions
- Mix together the chili powders with the garlic powder, onion powder, salt and cumin. You can add other ingredients as well, such as dried oregano, dried basil or more.
- Store in airtight containers for up to 1 year and use as desired.
Notes
- Heat Factor: Mild, but this particular blend is big on flavor. You can easily adjust the heat factor by choosing different peppers. You can also easily add more or less of the other ingredients to your personal tastes.
- This makes about 1/2 cup total.
- For Grinding Your Own Dried Chilies (Makes the Freshest Chili Powder)
- Add 2 dried guajillo peppers, 3 dried ancho peppers and 4-5 dried cayenne peppers (or chile de arbol) to a hot pan and dry toast them a couple minutes per side, until they just start to puff up and darken in color. You will just able to start to smell them. This helps release their natural oils.
- Remove from heat, then remove the stems. Slice them open and remove the seeds.Add the dried pods to a food processor and process them until a powder forms. You may have some coarse chunks that you can either leave in or strain out.
- Then, proceed with the recipe. Makes about 1/3 cup of chili powder.
