Chile Powder

Chile Powder

Introducing Spice Station’s Chile Powder, a premium blend that transcends the traditional chili powder, crafted meticulously to bring out the best in your dishes. Our unique formula incorporates freshly ground cumin, Mexican oregano, and a medley of New Mexico pulla and guajillo chiles, ensuring a robust and authentic flavor profile that stands out in any recipe.

When thinking about blending spices, chile powder was one of our top blends to make. We wanted it to be original, fresh and zesty. Chile powder is so versatile with what it can be put in or used with. It is traditionally used in Latin American dishes, like enchiladas, tacos, or empanadas. It has also been welcomed in seasoning almost any kinds of meats; red meat, ground turkey, chicken or fish or shrimp for added flavor. Clearly, adding it to a crock pot of home made chili is one of the best ways to use this blend. Making soup and want an added kick? Chile powder is the way to go. Something as easy as making beans for lunch or dinner, you can add chile powder to that as well.

Scoville Heat Score

This blend registers a moderate Scoville Heat score, making it a versatile addition to your spice rack. With a rating of approximately 2,500 to 5,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), it offers a pleasant heat level that enhances the dish without overpowering it. This balanced spiciness makes it suitable for a wide range of culinary applications, from mild to moderately hot dishes.

Flavor Profile

The flavor profile of our Chile Powder is a harmonious blend of smoky, earthy, and slightly sweet notes. The freshly ground cumin provides a warm, nutty undertone, while the Mexican oregano adds a hint of citrus and mint. The New Mexico pulla and guajillo chiles contribute a rich, deep chile flavor with a touch of sweetness and a mild, approachable heat. This intricate combination creates a depth of flavor that enriches any dish.
