Default chili powder drama

Gebhardt's chili powder isn't made in San Antonio anymore - it's made
in (hang on to your hat) New Jersey! First Grandma's chili powder
disappears from the face of the earth (2010), now I find out
Gebhardt's chili powder isn't made in Texas anymore and it's only
February! Which icon will be the to crash and burn - Ben & Jerry's?

https://lacocinahistorica.wordpress....ili-powder-co/


Gebhardt's Chili Powder (clone)

2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon oregano
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons chipotle chili powder
2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (vary amount 1-3 tsp for heat)
2 tablespoon paprika


Directions:

Mix all ingredients. Store in a sealed container.

User Comment:
For hot chili - use New Mexico powder (and omit the cayenne pepper).
For mild, use Ancho with or without cayenne (or crushed chili seeds).

Paprika, Cumin, salt, Mexican Oregano, freshly ground coriander seeds,
black pepper and celery salt will give you a blend that is just like
the store kind.


Grandma's Chili Powder (clone)
Shamelessly copied directly from Texas Cooking

For mildness and flavor:
• 4 Ancho chiles (dried poblanos)
• 3 Dried New Mexico chiles

For heat:
• 3 to 5 Dried Chiles de Arbol or Cayenne

For flavor:
• 2 tablespoons cumin seeds, toasted
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons ground oregano (Mexican oregano, if you can find it)

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.

2. Remove stems and seeds from all the chiles. Cut each chile in half
with scissors and flatten the pieces, place on a sheet pan. Toast,
turning them occasionally, until they smell roasted and are very
pliable (if you toast the chilies before cleaning them, they'll also
puff up). Or you could skip the oven and use your microwave. Just
lay the chilies on a microwave-safe plate, and microwave them on high
in 15 second intervals until toasted and pliable. About 30 seconds
total.

* Incidentally, good dried chiles will still have some moisture in
them and be fairly pliable. Don't use dried chiles that are so dry
and fragile that they shatter when touched. Chile ristras and wreaths
are wonderful decorative accents, but the chiles dry out and lose
their flavor.

Why should it matter where it's made, provided they're following
the original recipe. Does some factory in Texas have terroir ?

Wow, I can honestly say I have never seen that one here!

I see that Gebhardt's was acquired by ConAgra Foods, which also
makes Odom's Tennessee Pride sausage -- why can't I buy it west of the
Rockies?

I've always thought of chili power as pretty generic material. These
days I don't use the stuff but prefer to use Korean gochugaru, garlic,
cumin, and oregano. I'll also use stuff like gochujang and a touch of
mustard. That's some tasty chili! Now I know what to make for my next
slow cooker dish.

It does when you're making a bowl of Texas Red.

Especially if the factory is located in a Texas cattle pasture...

You criminally STALK and ABUSE women, you sick little dwarfy man!

Here's what you did when you went all over the Usenet impersonating the
well-liked regular named "sf" and posting all her personal data on the
net against her will, including her:

* home address
* age
* cell phone number
* husband's name

etc.

YOU did that, you evil *******!

And then you had the hubris to actually GLOAT about in public saying:

She should call the cops. I've already publicly admitted it is me so
a conviction should be a piece of cake and then forging would stop.
So what's stopping her? I think she suffers from Bovism - she just
loves the attention and drama and screw the rest of the group.

And before that you literally stalked poor Omelet, a local Auustin
favorite, right off the Usenet!

In your worst moment ever you actually begged her to KILL you:

I'm making you a project like no other, expect a lot more of your evil

just waiting to be hung out on the virtual clothesline to dry.

Enjoy then, you rotten, worthless misogynistic *******!

Six pounds is a lot of chili powder, and you must have uber extra
freezer space... that's like a shoebox full. I can't imagine any home
chili cook needing more than one pound of chili powder at a time...
and even in a freezer chili powder loses potency over one year because
it's all finely ground spices/herbs, not whole spices/herbs. Chili
powder is easy to make oneself from whole ingredients, and then one
can also vary the recipe to taste, that's what anyone calling themself
a Chilihead would do... and besides, Gebhardt's is really no different
from any other comon stupidmarket spice blend, it's not dated so is
likely already old when purchased. I make a large pot of chili (12
qt) when the mood strikes me, maybe twice a year, I buy a 1/2 lb of
chili powder at a time, lasts me more than a year, even two years.
I've tried Gebhardt's and several others but they are all laced with
preservatives, so I prefer Penzeys (no preservatives), and when
ordered from their factory it's always fresh. I buy their
regular/mild version as I don't like a lot of heat, and anyone wants
they can add their own heat at table... for me a small bit of crushed
red pepper flakes like for pizza is enough heat for me.... I see no
point to fiery hot chili, then one is incapable of tasting anything
but HOT... with all that super hot pepper it could be Ken-L Ration.

I don't understand why dried mixes are not shipped. Maybe lack of market.

I do understand why sausages are not shipped. They don't age well not
even fermented semi-dry sausages like salami or pepperoni.

My favorite salami is Gallo Salame from San Francisco. They are
owned by Sara Le based in Chicago. I asked the Chicago folks if they
could carry it locally. They said it does not do well in the
transportation. I have ordered Gallo Salame from eBay shippers but
I mostly get the brands that are available locally. Columbus Salami
is excellent as long as it's not served side by side against Gallo
Salame. And the two are competitive enough that both have lots of
people who prefer each one.

I can buy Gerhard's, never heard of the sausage - but it is probably
sold under a different out West, as so many products are.
