......is that correct? As I understand it, chili powder, as opposed to chile
powder, is just powdered chiles with additional spices like cumin, oregano,
etc, mixed in. That chili powder seems redundant. Should it be powdered
chile? I mean, why go out and buy a separate ingredient (chili powder) when
you're already putting the same ingredients in? Probably fresher, too.
