Technically, the word "Chipotle" means any Pepper than has been smoked and dried. Nowadays, Chileheads know Chipotles to be dried and Smoked Jalapeno Chiles, and thanks to the gang at Los Chileros de Nuevo Mexico, you get to enjoy just that. These high quality Chiles have a medium, lingering heat that is full of strong smoky taste. The Chiles can be crushed and used as garnish for Pizza or Soups. Or you can rehydrate them in 2 parts water and one part vinegar (of your choice) to use in place of canned Chipotle Chiles (It will be heatlhier and a lot less salty). For a person with high blood pressure, these Chipotles are a Godsend for anyone looking to use a healthier alternative in Huevos Rancheros, Chili, or Mole.
