Cooking Tips:
Chipotles are smoke-dried jalapenos used primarily in Mexican-
and Mexican-inspired cuisine.
Chipotles are made from
jalapenos. There are hundreds of varieties of jalapenos.
Jalapenos vary in size and heat. In Mexico, the
jalapenos is also known as the cuaresmeno, huachinango and
gordo. Until recently, chipotles were almost exclusively found
in the markets of Central and Southern Mexico. As Mexican food
became more popular in the United States,
jalapeno production began to move into Northern Mexico and the
United States. |
