Making Chile Powder (How-To)
I love browsing the spice isles in specialty food stores and am tempted to buy ground chile powder (not chili -- the spice blend). But I question the freshness and am turned off by the price. I can buy whole dried-smoked chiles, like ancho, very easily and affordably.
Now my question, can I take whole dry chiles and grind them myself? How would I go about that, should the seeds be removed or included? Will have a higher quality product than the spice jars?
