homemade chili powder

Find dried whole chile peppers in most large supermarkets and any Latin market. We use three varieties. Ancho chile peppers are sweet, fruity, and mild. New Mexico chile peppers are fresh, clean and mild. Guajillo chile peppers are smoky and medium hot. You can swap or add other peppers based on what is available to you. We recommend including something that&#8217;s sweet and fruity. They add complexity and flavor (in our case, that is the ancho pepper).

I use bothe yous and AB's versions of this, and it's excellent. The one difficulty with chili pods is the lack of consistency from one batch to the next, so I'm wondering if you have come up with a weight in grams, or a measure in table or teaspoons, for each chili going into the recipe. Thanks in advance for any help!

Love the chili powder. Ive made this a number of times.   Ive used it in a rub recipe that called for chili powder when smoking short ribs and in a carne asada marinade recipe. Really nice flavor and a key ingredient. I intend to use it to make an enchilada sauce.

I made some chili powder using the ancho chile and other spices, however i didnt toast the chili first.  Somehow i misunderstood the instructions about the peppers,but my chili came out good though.

Thanks to you Adam &amp; Joanne. I'm able to get Chile's you've listed and a few other varieties fairly inexpensive locally. I toast whole cumin seeds before grinding also. I haven't had the opportunity to use what I've blended yet but it smells wonderful so I'm positive it will taste so much better then the store bought - by miles. 5 stars for that alone. Thanks for posting and including info on the types of Chile peppers, etc. Very helpful. I'm thinking this would make great gift jars too.

Delicious! I added a teaspoon of dill and it enhances the flavor.

Excellent piece. I have done a lot of blending lately and am always interested to read other takes on layering the heat in chile powders and other blends. Thanks.
