Light Chili Powder

Description

Light chili powder is the dried, pulverized fruit of one or more varieties of chili pepper, sometimes with the addition of other spices. It is used as a spice to add pungency and flavor to culinary dishes. In American English, the spelling is usually “chili”; in British English, “chilli” is used consistently. Chili powder is sometimes known by the specific type of chili pepper used.

Varieties of chili peppers used to make chili powder include Aleppo, ancho, cayenne, chipotle, chile de Arbol, jalapeno, New Mexico, pasilla, and piri piri chili peppers. Gochugaru is a variety used in Korean cuisine traditionally made from sun-dried Korean red chili peppers known as taeyang-cho, with spicier varieties using Cheongyang peppers.

Usage:

Kashmiri chili powder is bright red, but mild in heat and used in Pakistani cuisine and Indian cuisine. It is named after the region of Kashmir. Chili powder blends are composed chiefly of chili peppers and blended with other spices including cumin, onion, garlic powder, and sometimes salt. The chilis are most commonly red chili peppers; “hot” varieties usually also include cayenne pepper. As a result of the varying recipes used, the spiciness of any given chili powder is variable.
