The poblano pepper is one of the most versatile of all the chili peppers. Poblano peppers have a heat rating between a bell pepper and a jalapeno. Organic poblano peppers typically grow to about 6 or 7 inches long and have a heat rating of 1,000 to 2,000 Scoville units. Poblano peppers are most famous for 'chile rellenos' (stuffed chili peppers) and their use in authentic mole poblano sauces.

The mature red poblano is significantly hotter and more flavorful than the less ripe, green poblano. When ripe poblano peppers are dried, they are known as the 'ancho' peppers and often used to make chili powder.

If you are looking for an organic chili pepper with less heat and more flavor than a jalapeño for use in your food or beverage product, the organic poblano pepper may be just right for you.

When roasted organic poblano peppers are used to make creamy soups, sauces and marinades and mole sauces and paste. Of course, stuffed peppers are a very common use for poblanos and we offer IQF poblano peppers whole, peeled, deseeded and ready for stuffing.
