That's well worth doing. Rather than drying them and grinding them, I have been splitting the chillies, drying them lightly and then preserving them in salt. It works for peppers too and when sliced and diced, the salted peppers have an ideal flavour and consistency for adding to home made empanadas etc.vanessa said:I have learned in my 6 years here if you see something you really like, stock up while it's available.!
Also, its amazing how much I have learned here. I just had a thought that ancho powder (a type of chili powder is dried jalapenos ground up). One could dry jalapenos and whatever other chilis you find in the oven and grind it with some cumin seeds for a homemade chili powder.!
