Q: Dave, Just ran across your page last night. Lotta great stuff! Couple of easy questions for you. I am looking for a general rule of thumb for the following: How much chipotle powder to replace 1 chipotle pepper in a recipe? How much ancho powder to replace 1 ancho pepper in a recipe? How much deArbol powder to replace 1 deArbol pepper in a recipe? Thanks, –Philip A: Hello Philip: Since dried chiles vary in size so much, this is a rough estimate of finely ground powders, based on a minimum from the smallest pods. You can always add more when cooking but if you add a lot to start you can’t easily take it out. Chipotle=1 teaspoon Ancho=2 1/2 teaspoons De Arbol=3/4 teaspoon –Dave DeWitt
