Chili powder

A blend of dried chili peppers, chili powder varies in intensity, flavor, and color. It is typically rusty red. The powder also may contain cumin, garlic, oregano, or salt. This spice is used to flavor Southwestern cuisine. It is a common ingredient in chili with beans and in chili con carne. It adds heat to dishes with a dash of flavor. Because chili powder ranges in flavor, many people like to grind their own powder from the chili pepper they prefer. Add the powder sparingly while cooking until the flavor and heat you desire are achieved. The best chili powders are ground from only chili peppers.
