Ancho Chili Powder

Ancho chili powder offers a deep, smoky sweetness with hints of dried fruit and cocoa, reminiscent of its origin as dried poblano peppers from Mexico. Its aroma is warm and inviting, with a mild heat that lingers gently. The texture is fine and velvety, making it easy to incorporate into a variety of dishes. This powder is prized for its ability to add complexity without overwhelming spice, ideal for enriching both traditional Mexican moles and contemporary global cuisines.

Notes

Store ancho chili powder in a cool, dark place to preserve its vibrant flavor. Freshness diminishes over time, so use within six months for optimal potency.
