ANCHO CHILE FLAKES - MEXICO

4 oz Resealable Bag - Mexico

Ancho chiles are fairly low on the chile heat scale; the ancho is one of the sweetest Mexican chiles. Since they're not too hot, these flakes offer a great way to taste the rich chile flavor, which has slight hints of fruit and coffee. From stirfries to egg concoctions to meats, sprinkle them on your favorite dishes to add texture and color with a good chile flavor. When fresh, anchos are known as poblanos, and are commonly used for chiles rellenos.
