How to make cayenne powder



When you grow cayenne peppers, you have to make your own cayenne powder! Here’s how we like to replenish our spice rack with delicious, smoky, spicy pepper powder. We use a simple food dehydrator and a spice grinder to achieve a perfect, fine powder. You could also use your oven to make your own cayenne, but the temperature should be low (around 125°F). #spicyfood #spices #gardeningtips

  1. Try roasting the dehydrated chillies and then powdering em. It smells divinely smokey! 😋

  2. Im from the chili capital of the world, and bless you for not taking out the seeds❤️‍🔥

  3. I do this with a bunch of different peppers, as I have been to busy to preserve them in other ways. This year I am making red pepper flakes with lunchbox and ripe banana peppers.

  4. What nutrients do you use? Mine are always really healthy, vibrant red, but they’ve never been this big. Just harvested about 25 reds today, but they were only about 3 inches each

  5. I swear that my brain is going crazy I could just feel the spicyness through the screen like it went near my eye and nose wtf just happened

  6. mine are short and stubby, could it be because it started producing when the plant wasn’t tall enough?

  7. Cheer~~~this be a pungent, hot-tasting powder prepared from dried and ground peppercorns, commonly used as a spice or condiment to flavor food….(I just got quite an interesting channel I had today. still learning contents by heart)😊

  8. 24hrs in the dehydrator? Overkill for sure. I’ve dried 3 ounces of fresh mushrooms in like 6 hrs lol

  9. My problem is that my peppers ripen at different rates and I don’t know what to do with the ones that ARE ripe while waiting for more to ripen. Can you freeze them for later dehydration?
