Ancho chili – Mexican broad pepper
Ancho is the dried version of poblano pepper, harvested in the Puebla region of Mexico. The name means “broad pepper,” as it retains its fullness after drying. The pepper is mild (3/10 on the Scoville scale) and is characterized by a complex flavor profile with notes of cocoa, raisins, and licorice.
Use:
Ancho chili is suitable for both meat and fish, where it adds warmth without overpowering. It can be used in traditional Mexican dishes, slowly braised sauces, and stews. Toward the end of cooking, it can be added to rice, pasta, or potatoes for extra depth. It also works in soups, veloutés, marinades, hummus, salads, and even in creamy sauces.
In Mexican cuisine, it is often combined with pasilla and mulato – the trinity behind many classic sauce compositions.
Properties
- Dried poblano pepper from Puebla, Mexico
- Mild heat (3/10 on the Scoville scale)
- Flavor notes: cocoa, raisins, licorice
- Suitable for sauces, soups, meat, fish, and Mexican dishes
