Ancho Chili
Deep, rich, and slightly smoky, Ancho Chili is the dried form of ripe poblano peppers, delivering a mild heat with layers of dark fruit and warm spice. With notes of dried plum, raisin, and cocoa, this chili adds depth and complexity to sauces, marinades, and slow-cooked dishes.
A cornerstone of Mexican cuisine, Ancho Chili is essential for making authentic mole, adobo, and enchilada sauces. Its versatile, slightly sweet heat makes it a perfect ingredient for both savory and unexpected sweet applications.
