Dried Chipotle Chile Pods - 1 lb

Earthy Delights Chipotles are a true culinary gem. The distinctive flavor of the Chipotle or “smoked chile” is created by smoking and drying fresh jalapeño chile peppers. This process gives the jalapeño a unique, medium-hot smoke flavor that continues to entice a global palate.

To reconstitute, soak the Chipotles in hot tap water for 20–60 minutes or until soft, then drain. Toasting the Chipotle before re-hydrating will enhance the depth and complexity of the flavor, but keep in mind toasting is not required in the use of the Chipotle.

The Chipotle will last for 12 to 24 months if kept in low humidity and alone in a plastic bag or container.
