Whole Dried Chipotle Chillies

Fox’s Spices Whole Dried Chipotle Chillies 150g are smoked and dried jalapeno chillies with a deep, savoury heat and a distinctive smoky aroma. They are ideal when you want a chilli flavour that is rich and rounded rather than just hot, bringing a slow warmth and a barbecue style smokiness to everyday cooking. Use whole dried chipotle chillies to build flavour in chilli con carne, smoky bean stews, tacos, burritos, tortilla soups and marinades, or steep them in hot water then blend into a smooth chipotle paste for sauces and rubs. They are also brilliant for making homemade chipotle mayo, smoky salsa, or a chipotle chilli oil for drizzling over roasted vegetables and grilled meats. If you are looking to buy whole dried chipotle chillies for Mexican cooking, BBQ marinades or smoky chilli sauces at home, this pack is a handy cupboard staple.

Do I need to remove the seeds from whole dried chipotle chillies?

You do not have to, but removing some or all of the seeds can make the heat gentler. The chilli flavour is in the flesh, while the seeds and inner membranes can add extra bite, so you can tailor it depending on who you are cooking for.

How do I turn whole dried chipotle chillies into a paste?

Soak the chillies in hot water until softened, then drain and blend with a little water, tomato, or oil until smooth. This paste can be stirred into sauces, rubbed onto meat or tofu, or mixed into mayonnaise, and it keeps its flavour well when cooked.

What is the difference between chipotle and regular dried chilli?

Chipotle is unique because it is smoked before drying, which gives it that unmistakable barbecue style aroma and a deeper, slightly sweet savoury taste. Many other dried chillies are simply dried, so they can be fruity or sharp, but they do not have the same smoky character.
