(Peppers, Ancho Chili) Ancho chili peppers are widely used in Mexican food and have a fruity, smokey taste that adds a wonderful flavor to many dishes. Ancho chili peppers have only 1,000 to 2,000 Scoville heat units, compared to 5,000 to 8,000 for the jalapeno pepper. Ancho chilies are actually dried poblano chili peppers and the drying process imparts a nice smokiness to the chilies. The chilies are a two to three inches wide and 4 to 5 inches long with a dark reddish-green, wrinkled skin. We use the pepper shin and seeds (only removing the stem and hard inner section upon which the seeds grow). Ancho chilies are commonly ground into a powder and used in spice mixes. They are available in most supermarkets. See the nutritional chart below.
