You don't need anything special. Pestal & morter, maybe (if even that). I
posted this in 2001; came from the American Heart Association book 'Cooking
Without Your Salt Shaker' which was published in the 1970's and is now a
collectors item.

Chili Powder
3 Tbs. sweet paprika
2 tsp. finely crushed oregano
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. ground turmeric
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper (to taste)


Blend all ingredients together and store tightly sealed. Makes about 4
tablespoons.
