Description
Since I chose to harvest the poblanos before a light freeze, I thought these three were so pretty they should be dressed up and photographed before they are roasted. Aren't they pretty? What are your favorite ways to use Poblanos?
One of the ways I use green poblanos is to make Poblano Pepper Powder. You can see how to do this at this link: http://picklecreekranch.com/blog/poblano-pepper-powder
The poblano (Capsicum annuum) is a mild chili pepper originating in the state of Puebla, Mexico. Dried, it is called ancho or chile ancho, from the Mexican Spanish name ancho ("wide") or chile ancho ("wide chile").Stuffed fresh and roasted it is popular in chile rellenos poblanos.
While poblanos tend to have a mild flavor, occasionally and unpredictably they can have significant heat. Different peppers from the same plant have been reported to vary substantially in heat intensity. The ripened red poblano is significantly hotter and more flavorful than the less ripe, green poblano.
A closely related variety is the mulato, which is darker in color, sweeter in flavor, and softer in texture.
