Thanks everybody for your suggestions. The anchos I bought are dried,
but a couple of them were just a little bendy, I was afraid to store
them in a closed container. I used a couple of them cooking mole, then I
spread the rest out on the counter top, now they are nice and hard. I
put them in a ziploc bag in the pantry. We could blame this on the
humidity being too high.
