<Dumb question time:

I have a nice bunch of anaheim peppers that I'm drying in my garage.  I
pulled the plants just before it froze, hung them in my garage to hopefully
ripen.  They hung there green till I turned on the heater in the garage.
Once the warm air started hitting them they turned bright red and are drying
very well -- not fast, but well.  When making chile-powder, do most of you
fellow CH'ers take seeds out or grind them with the seeds?>

Nels, I remove the seeds and stems before grinding. Makes it easier and the
powder isn't quite as hot, if you are cooking with non-CH in mind (like I
am). Anaheims aren't very hot anyway, but I would take them out just in
case.
