Storage and substitutes
How to store it
Keep dried chillies in an airtight jar in a cool, dry, dark place — they hold their aroma and flexibility for months. If they have gone brittle, toast them briefly in a dry pan before soaking them in hot water to revive their flavour.
Substitutes
If you can't find a specific variety, another dried chilli with a similar profile works if you adjust the quantity: ancho, mulato and pasilla share sweet, fruity notes with mild heat, while árbol and morita are noticeably hotter. Guajillo is one of the most versatile bases for salsas and adobos.
