Our Chipotle Chili Powder is made from ripe jalapeño peppers that have been smoked and dried before being ground into a fine powder. Its smoky flavor complements poultry, fish, meats and hearty vegetables, especially when grilled, smoked or roasted.

How to use it

Smoke in a jar. Chipotle is a smoked jalapeño — it's the smoky heat behind chipotle mayo, adobo sauce, and the best black bean burgers. One to two teaspoons adds smoky depth to ground beef tacos, pulled pork, chili, or barbecue sauce. Stir into sour cream for a dip, mix into burger patties, or add to sweet potato soup for smoky warmth. Hot enough to notice, not enough to fear.

    Capsicum annuum

    The chile most North Americans meet first — thick-walled, grassy and bright, with a clean heat. Dried and ground it is a different proposition from the fresh pod: less vegetal, more concentrated. Left on the bush to ripen red and then smoked for six days,...

What it goes with

Chipotle and our Lapsang Souchong share the same smoky compound — guaiacol, created when wood lignin breaks down under heat. Smoke meeting smoke. Brew a cup alongside chipotle tacos or a black bean burger. For a mellower match, our Hojicha carries the same compound from its roasting process.

Always handy

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.

It worked beautifully; perhaps if I add a little more honey, it would make it better… It is a wellness tea, after all!
