Ingredients
2 ½ lbs fresh jalapenos
¾ cup kosher salt
Instructions
- Wash and dry jalapenos. Remove stems and quarter lengthwise.
- Optional: Remove seeds from half the peppers for a milder spice level.
- Arrange on dehydrator trays and dry at 145°F (63°C) for ~14 hours until brittle.

- Mix jalapeno powder with kosher salt by hand or pulse in a blender for finer texture.
- Transfer to a dry, airtight container and store in a cool, dry place.
Notes
- Ensure peppers are fully dry to avoid spoilage.
- Adjust heat level by seed retention.
- Customize flavor with additional herbs or spice powders.
