I made this chile powder a few days ago and finally used it tonight. My
burritos came out terrific because I sprinkled a little of this on the
filling before I rolled them up. Of course, you can use any HOT chile
you wish. I got the original recipe from my friend Sara in Vidalia, GA.
She used cayenne in her blend. I thought it was too mild for my tastes.
I used Aji Amarillo.
