One more factoid: Guajillos seem to be a Mexican staple, yet every pack of pods I've bought in "Mexican" grocery stores (here in a state bordering Mexico and that used to be Mexico) has been from Peru.
Now, back to you, delicious powder.
PS: Guajillos are pretty and taste OK fresh, but dried on the plants, they take on a new colour and world's more flavour.

Aromatherapy?
Is that that this is called.
My nose is running and I have peppers powder all over me.
I have all of the Arbol ground up and am waiting on the last batch of Guajillo peppers to dry.
