Is there any reasonable (trustable?) place to get decent dried chiles mail order? None of my local grocery stores have anything. I think I saw one variety of dried ancho at one place one time, and that's it. Everyone says dried chili powders won't carry enough flavor (especially if they've been sitting around) and I believe them. Is there anything like a frozen or canned chili paste already that's decent? Sorry if that's sacrilege.

Although I normally love Penzeys for everything, the last time we got a chili powder from them was just the 'Regular Chili Powder' and ignoring spicyness, holy hell was it devoid of flavor. Very out of character for them. I figured that was just an example of 'Preground chili powder just isn't very good' or at least not good enough to carry a dish. But now I'm realizing you are probably talking about the whole chiles they seem to have, which apparently I'm a moron and have never seen on their site before. Thanks! I will investigate local options some more too, although I have been told they're not great.

Is it true that all chiles basically have some bug eggs in them that will eventually hatch? Can I vacuum seal and freeze extra whole dried chiles, or do I need to process all of them into paste and freeze that? Help me I have too many dried chiles because penzys had a sale and I didn't realize how much 8 oz of chile peppers is...
