Spice
Style
Chili powder is a dry seasoning mixture used to bring a recognisable regional flavour in one scoop. Warm colour and heat for rubs and stews. Freshness of the ground spices determines aroma. Rub on proteins before searing, bloom in oil for stews, or finish fried foods. Store airtight away from heat and light; replace when colour and smell fade.
