Homemade Chili Powder

1. Cut open dried peppers; discard stems.* In a well-ventilated area crumble peppers and place in a food processor. Cover and process until a powder forms. When grinding peppers, turn away to avoid inhaling fumes or particles from peppers.

2. In a small jar with a tight-fitting lid combine ground peppers and remaining ingredients. Cover and shake well. Store in a cool, dark place up to 6 months.

To Store

Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
