Chili Anyone?
By Michael Erlewine
I have a love affair with Mexican Chile peppers, but not too hot. I like a more gentle and mild chili powder. Yet, most of the ones on the market include cumin, sweet paprika, cayenne, and all kinds of other stuff, when I just want some really tasty chili powder with nothing else added. I tend to like the New Mexico peppers that come from the Hatch Valley.
So, I’m asking my FB friends, any of you who may know what is the best and tastiest of the Hatch variety (or similar) and can post a link here as to where I can to get them. I like to make chili, but not with meat. I love it nevertheless, so I would appreciate some suggestions please, those of you in the know.
I have some dried Guajillo Chile Peppers, which I include a photo I just took of them.

As Bodhicitta is so precious,
May those without it now create it,
May those who have it not destroy it,
And may it ever grow and flourish.
