  • Add other spices: In addition to chili peppers, you can add other spices to your chili powder, such as cumin, oregano, garlic powder, or onion powder. Experiment with different spices to create a chili powder that suits your taste.
  • Store the chili powder properly: Store the chili powder in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Chili powder will keep for up to 6 months.
