Achoo!! Achoo!! I just bottled up the powders -- they came in plastic
bags. What a lovely smell they have. I can't wait to do something with
them. I now have 2 quarts of red chili powder and a pint each of green
chili and jalepeno. Plus a quart and a half of Mexican oregano. I need to
broaden my outlook on recipes if I am going to use all that in a timely
fashion. I'll store the jars in the freezer just to help lengthen their
potency. I was going to have steak sandwiches for dinner, but it is looking
more like chili. I bought a case of chuck from Costco a while back and can
pull a piece from the freezer and either dice or grind it. Chili does sound
good.
