Product Description
Introducing Chipotle Meco Chiles, a unique ingredient that enhances a variety of dishes in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisines. With their rich smoky flavor and medium heat, these chiles are perfect for adding depth to salsas, marinades, and more.
Chipotle Meco Chiles are made from smoked jalapenos, specifically the Capsicum annuum species. The Meco variety is distinctively larger and stiffer, featuring a grayish-tan color resembling a cigar butt. These mature jalapenos are harvested after spending an extended period on the bush, resulting in a deeper red color and concentrated flavor. The smoky aroma process for Meco chiles lasts approximately twice as long as that for Moritas, contributing to their intense and robust taste.
Key Features:- Flavor: Smoky with a slightly spicy, grassy fruitiness.
- Heat Level: Medium heat, ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 SHU (Scoville Heat Units).
- Quality: Considered by many chile enthusiasts to be superior to Morita chiles.
- Usage: Ideal for enhancing sauces, stews, and marinades.
- Size: Convenient 8 Ounce (Pack of 1) for easy storage and use.
