Chili Pepper, Chipotle Brown

Product Info:
Brown Chipotle Chiles (Capsicum Annuum) are made from the jalapeno pepper.  Jalapeno chiles are smoked to dry them.    Brown Chipotle Chilies differ from our Chipotle Moritas in both appearance and flavor.  Brown Chipotles are the green (unripened) jalapenos and the Moritas are the red, fully mature Chipotles.  These peppers are about 1-1/2 to 3 inches in length with long, vein-like ridges and a tan to coffee brown color.  Consider the Brown Chipotle a 5 on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the hottest). Brown chipotles are slightly less hot than the Morita Chile and have a slightly smokier flavor. 

Suggested Use:
Use Chipotles in enchilada sauces, chili, stews, barbecue ribs, and corn bread. Their smoky quality combines well with poultry, meats and fall squash.
