White Lightning Chili Powder Blend
This chili powder recipe is delicious! Although there
are many ingredients, take the time to create it and
have it on hand, you'll be glad you did.
16 dried chile pequines, whole (if you can't find chili pequines, use dried cayennes or chili peppers and use 1/2 of the amount specified)
3 Tablespoons chili powder (commercial, dark, and salt-free)
4 Teaspoons cayenne powder
4 Teaspoons paprika
1&1/2 Teaspoons garlic granules (not powder)
1&1/2 Teaspoons onion granules
1 Teaspoon dried oregano
1 Teaspoon dried rosemary leaves, whole (to dry whole fresh herbs, place on cookie sheet in a 150 degree oven for 30 minutes before using in blends)
1 Teaspoon black peppercorns, whole
1 Teaspoon cumin seeds, whole
1/2 Teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1/2 Teaspoon juniper berries, whole
1/2 Teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 Teaspoon coriander seeds, whole
1/4 Teaspoon dried epazote leaf
Mix all ingredients and grind in a coffee grinder to a
powder, or just leave it unground and grind as needed
in recipes. Use in mashed avocado for a great guacamole,
in beef or chicken to make tacos, and of course in your
chili recipes.
