Ingredients
- 3 (15 g) guajillo chile peppers
- 2 (10 g) Fresno chile peppers
- 2 Tablespoons (20 g) crystallized lime
- 2 Tablespoons (30 g) sea salt
Directions
- Place the dried chiles into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Run the Spice Grinding Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then increase to its highest speed. Blend for 25 seconds, or until desired consistency is reached.
- Transfer the ground chiles to a small bowl and mix thoroughly with the crystallized lime and sea salt. Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Notes
Make this blend as spicy as you prefer by adding more dried chile peppers or using hotter (or milder) chiles! Homemade spice blends are great because they allow you to control the ingredients, ensuring freshness and avoiding unnecessary additives and preservatives. Guajillo and fresno chilies are rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and capsaicin, which can reduce inflammation. Watching your salt intake? You can always adjust as needed!
