While these ingredients are the most commonly found in chili powders, you can get as experimental and adventurous as you’d like. For example, Chile 9000 (one of our favorite chili powders) contains lemon peel, cocoa powder, and ginger!

Preheat the oven to the lowest setting, around 140°F (60°C). Cut the peppers in half and take out the seeds. Lay the halved peppers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Remember to leave the oven door slightly open to allow moisture to escape. Let the peppers dry in the oven for a few hours, checking them often to make sure they’re completely dry and crispy. The drying time depends on the size and thickness of the peppers. With patience and attention, you’ll have perfectly dried peppers.
