You’ll want to destem and deseed the chiles by cutting into them with a knife, or using your hands. Set the stems aside and shake out the seeds. You may need to use a knife or the side of a spoon to scrape out any stuck seeds.

1

Cut or rip the chiles into smaller pieces to fit into your spice grinder, or food processor.

2

Using a spice grinder or food processor, blend the chiles well. You may want to do it in batches depending on the size of the blender you have.

3

This is optional, but depending on how fine you’d like your powder, you can run the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to help catch larger pieces or seeds.
