ITEM: TWO OUNCES (2 oz.) OF FRESH NEW MEXICO ANCHO CHILE POWDER. This 100% pure chile powder comes direct from the Rio Grande Valley in southern New Mexico. This valley is home to Hatch – “The Chile Capitol of the World” which arguably produces the finest and most flavorful chile on the face of the earth. Southern New Mexico’s unique combination of fertile, sandy soil, hot temperatures and adequate rainfall create the ideal conditions for the production of our famous chiles.SPECIFICS: ANCHO CHILE POWDER is widely used in Mexico and is made from fresh, mild Poblano chiles. Ripe Poblano chile pods are picked fresh from the fields and then they are professionally dehydrated. Once dried, the Poblano pepper is a broad, flat, heart-shaped pod then called Ancho chile. After dehydration, the product is ground into a powder. This powder has a sweet, earthy, rich, fruity flavorUSES: Great for making all your New Mexican, Mexican, and Tex-Mex foods that use Ancho chile. This is such a versatile chile that it can be used in virtually any dish. I recently had a customer that entered a chili cook-off and won two 1st place prizes for best all around chili using this Ancho as his base!
