The use of chili powders can be traced back to early Indian curry powders and its American roots date back to the late 19thcentury. Our popular chili powder is salt free and is hand crafted in small batches. Hand blended from Ancho chiles, Mulato Chiles, Chile de Arbol, cumin, garlic, Mexican Oregano and smoked paprika. While we consider this a good all around general purpose chili powder it is loaded with spicy flavor and has just a bit of kick to it. This is not a cheap and bland all purpose chili powder that you may be used to.
Some folks have been known to get a bit confused when a recipe calls for Chile Pepper (or chili pepper or chilie pepper)which is actually referring to ground or dried chile peppers and when a recipe calls for Chili Powder it is referring to a mixture that contains ground chile (or chili) peppers and other spices.
We carry a large selection of chili powders Hill Country Chili Powder, Sweet Chili Powder, Chili Con Carne , if you are looking for a mild chili powder then our Chili de Ancho Mulato will fill the bill and for those that like a bit of heat our El Paso Chili Powder (Hot). All of our chili powders are also salt free.
And if you have a true Chili Powder lover as a friend or family member you might want to think about our Chili Powder Passion spice set, this makes a great house warming, birthday or holiday gift.
Some of our favorite chili recipes are Beef and Beer Chili, Vegetarian Chili, Spicy Chicken Chili, Chili with Beans and the classic Cincinnati Chili.
