delurking after many years.
I'm trying to make my own chile powder and after grinding the peppers the
powder cakes up into little lumps. The powder seems to be dry but there is
just enough moisture to allow it to cake. Anyone know of any anti-caking
agents
I can use or an alternative way to keep the powder from caking?
I'm using a small handheld coffee grinder to grind the dried peppers.
I'm using the chile powder to dust caschews and peanuts. My employees
go nuts over my mix and up to now I've always used store bought powders
but they were never hot enough.
