De-Stemmed Organic Chipotle Morita Chiles, 1 lb – Smoked Dried Jalapeño Peppers for Adobo, Enchilada Sauce & BBQ, Medium-Hot Heat (15,000–35,000 SHU), by Woodland Gourmet

De-Stemmed Organic Chipotle Morita Chiles are fully ripened red jalapeño peppers that have been carefully smoke-dried and prepared without stems for convenient culinary use. Certified organic under the USDA National Organic Program, these dried chiles deliver premium quality and consistent performance. As jalapeños mature on the vine, they transition from green to red and develop natural sugars that create the characteristic fruity-sweet undertones of chipotle peppers. Once harvested, they are dried and smoked to produce the deep reddish-purple color and layered smoky flavor that defines the morita variety. With a Scoville range of 15,000 to 35,000 SHU, chipotle morita chiles provide balanced medium heat comparable to mild serrano peppers, but with greater depth and smoke complexity. Moritas are smoked for a shorter period than chipotle meco chiles, allowing them to retain brighter fruit notes and a more versatile flavor profile. Rehydrate before blending into adobo, enchilada sauce, mole, chili, stews, BBQ dishes, marinades, and spice rubs. Their smoky-sweet depth enhances poultry, pork, beef, seafood, and roasted vegetables. Ingredients: Organic Chipotle Chiles. Woodland Gourmet, the brand that Food Lovers trust!
