A very popular, mild pepper, the Anaheim Chili Peppers is also known as the California Green Chili, the Long Green Chili or Magdalena.
Anaheim peppers are available year round but the summer harvest is known to have the best flavor.
These Peppers are very popular in Mexican cuisine. They are diced and pureed for sauces, soups and casseroles. These large Peppers are also the most commonly used peppers for chile rellenos.
