Excellent-Thanks so much! I used 4 dried red chilis with the seeds removed. This adds an incredible amount of flavor to any dish calling for chili powder. My boyfriend is a total wierdo and insists that everything should be storebought so I just mixed this up and put it in the plastic commercial container. He'll never know and think it's just my fabulous cooking! Muahahahahahahaha!

WOW! Can not believe how good this is compared to the store bought chili powder. I used this in my chili and I could tell the difference. Thanks for a great recipe.

We can't really get "chili powder" (i.e., the spice blend referred to as Chili Powder in North America) in Australia. Chili Powder here, is just powdered chiles! So I have to make my own. Its hard to rate this as you can't really taste it on its own, but this has been working out just fine for me.

I found it to have WAY too much paprika, and I only put 4 T of paprika rather than 6 T in a doubled recipe. 18x as much paprika as cumin? That's unheard of! I also didn't care much for the turmeric. Makes good Indian food, not great chili.
