SPICE ESSENTIALS: 3-INGREDIENT CHILI POWDER BASE

Steps:

• PREP/PREPARE
• If you want to give this spice mix a nice deep flavor, lightly toast the cumin seeds in a hot, dry pan before grinding.
• If you want to mix it up, try adding additional types of dried chilies... have fun with it. But do not add other spices, this is simply a base of chilies and cumin.
• To get these ingredients into a powder, you will need a good grinder. If you have a Vitamix, use it. That is one of the most powerful grinders I have ever seen.
• Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• Place the chilies and cumin seeds in a blender or spice grinder.
• Blend into a powder, and then reserve, in a tightly-sealed jar, in a cool, dry place until needed.
• Chef's Note: You should wind up with about 4 tablespoons of chili powder, so if you want to make more, double, or triple the recipe.
• Add to any dish that requires chili powder. A nice big pot of chili comes to mind. Mmmmmm
• PLATE/PRESENT
• Always serve your meals with love. Enjoy.
• Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
