Steenbergs Mexican Chilli Powder - 48G

Flavours: Hot
Cuisines: Mexican

This is milder than pure chilli powder, which is just ground chilli pods.  Steenbergs Organic Mexican Chile Powder is an agreeable blend of organic chilli , organic cumin and organic paprika that combines the fire of chilli with the earthiness of organic cumin seeds. The inclusion of organic paprika creates a mildness and almost sweet flavour, while the organic cumin provides the Mexican character.  It's strange how organic cumin - that classic Indian/Moroccan spice - has a true Mexican flavour when combined with organic paprika or chopped tomatoes in a salsa.

Use for chilli con carne or in North Mexican bean tamales, such as Tamales de Frijol Norteos, or in Tex-Mex dishes. High street taco seasonings are usually padded with extra salt, starchy fillers and monosodium glutamate, so try our more authentic blend.

As with all Steenbergs artisan spice blends this organic chilli powder has been created and blended at the Steenbergs spice factory in rural North Yorkshire, Great Britain, just north of the cathedral city of Ripon. Steenbergs specialises in organic and fairly traded spices..
