Chili Powder
Until recently I didn’t know how stupid easy making your own chili powder was. Who knows how much money we have spent on “good” chili powder when we could have done it ourselves for a couple of bucks.
So are you ready… there is a lot to remember…
Chili Powder
Dried peppers (any kind you want. We just went to HEB and bought a bag of mixed dried peppers)
Ground white pepper (any kind of pepper will do)
Cut peppers in small pieces and leave as many seeds in as you can handle. Remember the more seeds you leave in, the hotter the powder will be. Put the pieces in a coffee bean grinder and grind into a powder. Grind some pepper into the powder and leave it out for a day to finish drying. Put it in a shaker and use it wherever you want to.
Ta da! That’s it. Enjoy!
