Chipotles are a key ingredient that impart a relatively mild but earthy spiciness to many Mexican dishes. The chilies are used to make various salsas, salads, dips, and soups.
Chipotle chilies can also be ground up and combined with other spices to make a meat marinade known as an adobo.
Chipotles have a definite heat but also a distinctive smoky flavor. The flesh is thick and so the chili is best if used in a slow-cooked dish rather than raw. Add whole
Chipotles to a soup, stew or in the braising liquid for meats.
Chipotle chillies also are a great combination with beans or lentils.
Chipotles are dried out, chopped and ground to produce the popular ground pepper we sell in this blend.
