Dried Chipotle Chiles
Deep, smoky heat with earthy character and cocoa undertones.
India Tree Dried Chipotle Chiles are fully ripened jalapeño peppers that have been smoke-dried to develop their signature depth. This process concentrates their heat while building a rich, smoky profile with earthy notes and subtle hints of cocoa.
A key ingredient in Mexican cooking, chipotle chiles add structure and depth to sauces, braises, and marinades. Use them whole, rehydrated, or ground when a dish calls for steady heat and layered smokiness without added acidity.
