McCormick Culinary Dark Chili Powder, 20 oz - One 20 Ounce Container or Dark Chili Powder, Enhances Nachos, Tacos, Enchiladas and Dark Chocolate

You can't beat McCormick spices. It's a big container and was very fresh tasting. I cook a lot of spicy dishes - cajun, tex-mex and it's a great spice to use in those recipes. Not too hot and not too spicy.

Typical US chili powder. Fresh, delivered quickly.

Working out good and tasty I use it all the time great value decent heat.

What a bargain! Excellent seasoning and an amazing price for such a large jar. Thanks!

Tired of the same old chili powder? Craving a deeper, smokier flavor to take your dishes to the next level? Then you need to try McCormick Culinary Dark Chili Powder! This unique blend isn't your average grocery store chili powder. It boasts a distinctive fruity taste with a hint of smokiness, adding a whole new dimension to your favorite recipes. From curries bursting with flavor to smoky red meat BBQ skewers, McCormick Culinary Dark Chili Powder has become a must-have in my spice cabinet! While the spice level wasn't overwhelming for us (more of a medium heat), it did offer a unique flavor profile. Here's what stood out: Fruity with a Hint of Smoke: This chili powder has a distinct fruity taste with a touch of smokiness, making it a great change from the usual red chili powder. It adds a new dimension to dishes without overpowering them. More Flavorful: This isn't your everyday chili powder. It has a richer, more complex flavor profile that elevates dishes like curries and red meat BBQ skewers. Shaker or Spoon Options: The container has a dual function lid with a shaker top for larger uses and spoon access for everyday cooking. I found the spoon most convenient for everyday use. A Few Things to Consider: Not a Universal Replacement: While we loved the dark chili powder for specific dishes, it's not a one-size-fits-all replacement for regular chili powder. We still use the red chili variety and paprika for everyday cooking. While this chili powder does contain some salt, it's not a substitute for a salt shaker. You may still need to adjust the salt level to your taste when cooking. Spice Level Preference: The spice level is moderate, but it might vary depending on your taste. My wife found it perfect, while I might have preferred a touch more heat. Overall, I really enjoyed the unique flavor profile of McCormick Culinary Dark Chili Powder. It's a great option for adding depth and smokiness to dishes, especially Asian-inspired cuisine and red meat BBQ skewers.
