Fresh chili pepper have better taste, and Rehydrating dried chili peppers is simple, and a great way to incorporate chili peppers into your meal. While you can simple toss them into hot water and let them steep, a better way is as follows:

  1. Scoop out the insides of the dried pods with a knife. You can do this step after they are rehydrated, but I like to trim it out while dry.
  2. Heat a large pan to medium-high heat and dry roast the peppers about 30 seconds per side.
  3. Set peppers into an oven proof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Use just enough to cover the peppers. Cover and allow to sit 15-30 minutes, depending on the thickness of your peppers.
  4. Remove from water and use as needed.

NOTE: The water used to rehydrate the peppers is useful. Nutrients from the peppers will seep into the water, so save the water for your recipe if you'd like.
