Whole Ancho Chili is the dried form of the ripe Poblano pepper, cherished for its rich, smoky flavor and mild to medium heat. This chili is characterized by deep, raisin-like sweetness and subtle earthy undertones, making it an essential ingredient in Mexican cuisine. Ancho chilis are commonly used to add complexity to sauces, salsas, and mole dishes. To fully appreciate its distinctive taste, whole ancho chili is best used by rehydrating and blending the dried chilis to create a flavorful paste or powder. This can then be incorporated into a variety of dishes to impart its unique flavor. If whole ancho chili is not available, it can be substituted with dried mulato peppers for their similar sweetness and depth or a mix of dried Pasilla peppers with a touch of smoked paprika to approximate the flavor profile.
May contain: nuts, sesame seeds, peanuts, gluten, soya, mustard and celery.
